“…and after wandering 46 years
we often forget stuff
of all types and shapes…”

“discovering your heart’s
secret wilderness…”

“The greatest miracle
we can unearth in our lives
is discovered in the shared hopes
of family and friends”

"shivering apparitions of early morning mists
softly settle on their deep—quiescent waters..."

“I trace the outline of unfinished edges
protecting a universe—we thought we knew”

“poets dig deftly to reach through

their abstracted universes of love”
