If you have ever experienced love or loss -- and who hasn't? -- you will find yourself in these poems. Describing and probing a range of familiar emotions from joy to sorrow, faith to fear, they spring from a well of personal experience common to us all. The pages of "Spindrift" swarm with images: a sunset "exploding soundlessly," the moonlight's "silver veneer;" the ocean's "sea scent" and the "sand's soft tan embrace;" Death, "a scythe and hooded skull a-skulk the marsh" and love, a "lighthouse presence." Come enter the depths of this world of imagination and insight.
