Produktbeschreibung
This is a gathering of autumn flowers, what has remained of the summer garden, the gathering before the scattering. Poems in the elder�s voice, that ripened voice which grows only out of a considered life, from a man who has spent the currency of his seventy some years in deepening that life through the practice of poetry. "Lake Winds" brings us the poetry of appreciation and gratitude. No busy ego racket here. These poems come from a quieter level of mind that trusts that all of this is held within the secret direction/of everything. They acknowledge that truth, in Rumi�s words, that �Someone has filled the cup before us.� It is understood that we must prepare it for those who follow. Each of these poems is a filled cup awaiting a reader. > > > Take long walks in the woods at dawn or dusk, / Breathe in the damp musty air, / Learn to listen before I die." These poems speak to those who have learned to listen. - Maj Ragain
