Reflections

About the Book

Reflections captures what emerges out of remembrance, moments of meditation, deep emotional experience, being inspired by all of nature, and sharing of human encounters. Contemplation, imagination, intellect, and reality are mined. Poems become a place to ponder, revisit, and share. Inner space— thoughts have a place to come and go
