What happened to the when
Rhymes mattered.
Words were raw and bold,
Every phrase was a prospect,
Candid journey into undiscovered
Thought, random
Self-paced journal that
Meandered, just as now with
Mind’s intent,
Like some greenhorn miner
Grubbing along cobbled streams
Silver flashes overlooked,
All the while
Panning for fool’s gold.
Questions, unquestioned discoveries, and answers in parable and rhyme…. This collection records a journey starting with a 1960s retrospective and the first man on the moon, moving to a new millennium welcomed in with a terrorist spin, family crises,
The songs and art in this book are about our collective emergence after the pandemic and trauma of the last few years - comprised of 5 collections: World as Refuge, Where We Live, In Our Hands, Rhythms of Change and What We See & Sow.
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
