Still Life

About the Book

I think of my writings as poetic observation of my life, of the world, and of nature. This book was written in a stream-of-consciousness technique and was edited as I wrote about spiritual, organic feelings that are empathetic to the human condition and evocative of the natural world. Some are songs or became songs. Music and art are always involved as well as personal relationships.
