Dragonfly Spirit

The poems and prose poems in this slim volume offer simple reflections on moments of insight - some whimsical, some humorous, mostly meditative. They reflect on a lifetime of living in places where I was a stranger, an infidel, an anomaly. In this, the final chapter of my well-lived life, I offer them to friends and fellow strangers in the dragonfly spirit of transformation. May they spur conversations, connections, or gentle nods of recognition. From the introduction: "Such moments were reminders that spirit endures beyond death, that love and beauty, though seemingly transient and fragile, are also resilient and enduring. This is the significance of the dragonfly spirit."
