Man, like the gen'rous vine,
supported lives;
The strength he gains
is from th'embrace he gives.

Background

Although Regis has retired as a Pittsburgh educator, the teachings of the Benedictine monks over thirty-five years ago have continued to influence his thinking. He has remained obsessed by such issues as good versus evil, and the enigma of existence itself. His stories reflect his search for meaning in a very human way.
