A riveting collection of poetry and quotes that deeply explore the vast spectrum of the human experience. Each poem is told from various points of view that represent sections of our population whose voices get lost in the crowd, or are forgotten altogether. "The poems transport the reader to fly with the author as he bears witness to tears, pain, fear, joy, and hope. The poems are windows into the author's experience on this earth as well as the collective experiences of so many people. This book is vivid, authentic, painful, and beautiful." -Amazon Review "The Moon Rises with Light" powerfully highlights the struggles and hardships of vulnerable people who also believe in the prospect of better days. Hope and optimism are prevalent, but the content does not shy away from tragedy and the harsh realities of life.
