Well I’ve finally done it, I’ve published my first book of poetry. The title is the title of this blog and it’s a collection of nearly two hundred poems about love, lust and loss all of which most of us have been intimately aquanted with at one time or another. It’s filled with very personal thoughts on these subjects with a generous sprinkling of nature and spirit. It is available on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09PHHC22X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860
And now I will share one of the poems from the book to give you a small glimpse into the book and my deep personal thought therein.
Believer
You are a believer
in magic
the kind that winds bring
while waiting hovered
above snow drifts,
You are a lover
of beauty
that quakes above in tethered limbs
hands of the tree gods
applauding
your passion,
You are one with
the four legged
relatives of my ancestors
their spirits filling
your human heart
with wisdom,
You are a believer
in my reasons
for being cupped here
in the glow of
your eyes lighting
the fire of my belief.
