Haiku and Blue Mountain Poems

Cooperation and trust are essential ingredients of social lifemade public through language spoken and written. Fromthe signals and gestures of our predecessors to the graftingof sound and markings to modern grammar what wesay and write represents what we think and what we thinkand feel represents what we perceive and have perceived ofthe world. Were truth a random occurrence or of relativelylittle significance our language would be vastly differentitself undependable. Such is not the case however: our wordsand grammar reflect what we see hear feel imagine and do. -- From The Limits of Truth (XLIBRIS)
