Synopsis

"Life is a mountain stream," born in snow-melt, molded by rocky crags, exuberant in narrow ravines, reflective in meadow ponds, flowing through calm lakes, steady rivers, and twisting deltas into the bay at its journey's end. These poems are chosen to reflect the progressive passage of life. These images and observations inform and broaden life's experiences.
