REGIFTS

<p><span style=background-color: rgba(0 0 0 0); color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>This is my second book of original poetry. The first one GIFTS was published nine years ago in 2007. As I said then I seldom (if ever) sit down to write a poem intentionally. Poems come to me out of the blue - like presents in the mail from far-off friends. I can edit and polish them rewrapping and refining the original idea but the real source of the inspiration is always a mysterious gift. Sometimes it comes from interactions with friends and family other times from my religious or musical families. Sometimes it comes during trips to far-off places and other times during quiet moments. In this book I pass along these gifts to you. I hope you enjoy them.</span></p>
