A GATHERING OF QUIET HOURS

No Sweeping Epics Here These Collected Poems Are Essentially Lyrical Vignettes Mood-Evocations Drawn From Experience Imagination And An Introspective Sifting Through The Human Contentions And Passions. Melancholic In Tone (Even The Few Comic Pieces Spring From Irony) The BookS Motifs Bypass The Transient Social And Political Issues Pursuing The Ineffable BeautyS Elusive Order The Flickering Lights In The Darkness Of LifeS Angst. The Four-Part Sub-Titled Format Takes The Basic Themes Through Their Separate Perspectives And The Attentive Reader Will Find Several - If Subtle - Threads Echoes In The BookS Construction Supporting A Sense Of Progression And Closure.
