Scattered Light

The poems in this collection have been selected as individual points of light, sourced from a diverse array of perspective across the strands of personal experience. Much as the morning sun shares its spectrum through the bevel of ancient glass, this collection too intends to refract your senses and intrigue your desire to see more. What follows are images in reality's fabric, conjured of the imagination, and borrowed from hints of history. Each song belongs to a unique perception of heart tenderly and carefully stitched throughout. The poems are drawn through the wide angled lens of life and encompass images of love, war, humor, heartache, triumph and the essence of those living, dead, and imagined.
