    About this ebook

    As the poet walks about, especially in the fall, the colors and wind speak a new language and allows the listener and viewer a chance to become part of something bigger, while grasping a new reality of the nature of change. So it is with the visual artist as well who must capture all of that with a few brush strokes. Enjoy this visual feast for your brain and come away with a nourishment hitherto unknown!

      Summer: A Love Story

      Apr 20, 2021

      It is a squalid time. The body grows tired of being a body. Sweat. Always. A thin film of it on the skin. Do not say dewy. Do not say glisten. I dream of endless green. Of wet. Of rain hammering the Earth. Of buds sprouting. I want to insist on life
