Living With Women and the World Around Us

Rainbow pageants are easy to capture, bright on the lens
It is finding the beauty in the unbroken grey
That differentiates the master from the casual recorder
The eye that is exquisite in the nurturing of the day
The one who will record the beauty of grey.
>John Peery is that poetic master who sees the beauty in grey as well as the rainbow celebrations fueled by the sun. Living with Women and the World Around Us examines the challenges of growing old, the battle against the encroaching obsolescence of the body and the mind, and explores the young attempting to find their footing in the world. John examines the closeness between a man and a woman, from early attempts at connection to the more mature relationships that can develop, with all of the bumps and bruises along with the wondrous joys companionship can bring. He celebrates his connection to the world around him: the moon, stars, sunsets and sunrises, trees, and the ever-changing seasons in which he is an enthusiastic participant. Writing is his occupation today and tomorrow. His passion is exploring, and searching for brilliance in self-awareness, with others and the world around him.
