This book of poetry contains reflections, explorations, and feelings expressed through both rhyming verses and prose, some free flowing and some more structured.
It is a result of a lifetime of friendships and family relationships and reveals experiences and feelings for those closest to me, both human and animal.
I have included sonnets, free verse, and an ode to a memorable animal.
