    About this ebook

    And Another Door Opens is a compilation of poetry, prose, and songs that I have written over the last fifty-two years.

    The work covers a wide variety of subjects, including love, family, the natural world, and my innermost thoughts, dreams, and concerns.

    It is illustrated with images of many of my paintings and drawings done over that same span of time.
