    About this ebook

    His poems, written during his years in business, show glimmers of his lyrical awareness. They are unassuming. They reveal the connectiveness of everyday events and living things to the all-pervasive, eternal governance—hidden and often ignored—while exposing simple truths, aligning them with the healing power of ubiquitous silence. His unpretentious village life—a vigor of green branches and blooms—animates his poetic landscape with beauty and strength.
