Book Description
"The collection is a delight. What I especially like are its sprightly juxtapositions -- every poem that follows every other poem strikes a different note -- surprises by its sudden shifts & differences in tone & content. It really gives a marvelous sense of the poet's diversity. "By Happenstance Together" could almost be its title. "It really is a joy. It bursts with pleasures." Guy Kettelhack, poet, author, artist, violinist

Book Description
My poems have helped me see things for years now. Looking back on my poems, written and now collected, I discover I see things anew not only the remembered incidents (when that happens) but also the vision created in my mind by the poem itself. These poems, collected from parts of the life I ran past now, are glimpses that offer glimpses of what is seen and what that seeing seems to mean. I find that poems best serve me in becoming the creator of insights and perspective. The poems in this book have been giving that gift for me again.

Book Description
My poems help me see what is in front of me. They typically find an image presented to me, a line of words appearing - a first line, in fact, and then begin to cause the lines to emerge until they are done. These have been stored - originally in hard copy form, more recently in electronic form. Out of those files, revisiting them in words read and images re-formed - either something akin to the original spawning image, or something created anew in my rereading - the selection is serially made to answer the insights revisited, regained and place them within the context of this manuscript. It is a pleasure to revisit those words, re-see the context and now to share the results of my delight with you.

Book Description
My poems help me see what is in front of me. They typically find that an image is presented, an image that seems to suggest a line of verse, just one which, when written down, enters into a cadence, a rhythm, a sense of sound and echo that evolves into a sequence of lines that flow. They flow until they stop, that is, and announce to me that the poem is, in facet, done. That is true whether the image is a raindrop or a tree, a flower or a bird, a shadow or the innuendo of faith or country: whatever. This book draws upon poems written some years ago, mostly in the years 2009 and 2015. There are also a few current poems that insist themselves into the collection as they are accumulated in the current year's file. As I revisit poems of years ago, quite often the occasion presents itself to memory - but not always so. Sometimes that occasion is as if unnecessary and, indeed, almost in the way of the poem as it has come to be. Revisiting is always a pleasure; it becomes one of the spurs toward forming the collection itself. Indeed, it s the pleasure and the satisfaction in the book that brings it about. Satisfaction is such a boon to life.

Book Description
In an endeavor to find a fresh way into the scriptural text upon which I would be preaching, I began to develop an imaginary world populated primarily by wee folk. I found that they - the characters I developed and the way they evolved in my mind and on the page - served me well as a consideration of how I sensed things happening in the scriptural text at hand. I want to make these stories newly available, and so I bring them to book form, fifty stories at a time. The cover drawing is done by Eve Sullivan, the author's granddaughter. The drawing is the artist's conception of Guerric and Mahara walking along a path in Hyperbia.

Book Description
My poems sharpen my sight, so that I see better what is there to be seen. I will find some situation or image or nuance that catches my eye, intrigues me. Sometimes, that seeing lends itself as an image for me, and then a line, just one at first that, when written down, enters into a cadence, a rhythm, a sense of sound and echo that emerges into a sequence of lines that flow, usually quickly. And then, the lines stop, the images seem complete, and then they announce to me that the poem is complete. That is true whether the image is a raindrop, a face, a pose, a tree, a flower, a bird, a shadow, or the innuendo of faith or country - whatever. This book draws upon poems written some years ago, mostly in the years 2009 and 2015. There are also a few current poems that insist themselves into the collection as they are accumulated into the current year's file.
