When the Muses Came to Call

This book is a very personal collection of poems and other writings that were written over a period of more than fifty years. They were written at times of strong emotional feelings about love, death, triumphs, tragedies and, even, the most mundane of life's events. It took fifty years for the author to gain the insight, the perspective and the courage to reveal his feelings for all to see. He hopes that the readers will see and recognize some of the emotion that plays such a big role in the lives of all of us.
