Tulips in April

Tulips in April is a collection of poems written through the years. Most of the poems were written out of a sense of joy. They simply emerge from the thought of someone, an event, a scent, a sense . . . an inner thought. Some of the enclosed poetry comes from rhythm set to words. And some are mirth, simply mirth. Poetry is energya palpable sense of energy. It comes out of relationships and my response to relationships with people, the earth and its seasons, passions, a sense of the spirit, wonder, awe, the shadow of pathos, and gratitude for the gift of it all. This book reveals the interiority of my life. One takes a chance when presenting to the world that which springs from deep within. In that chance it is hoped "Tulips in April" will quietly find its way to souls who recognize the love of a small boy who gave his mother a bouquet of tulips on an April day many-many years ago.
