The poems in Love from the Yellowstone Trail stem from my childhood. I spent my first eighteen years within sight of the Missouri River seen from our front porch steps in South Dakota.

Thus rose the books title and a way in and out of the books sections, just as the Trail was a way in and out of my hometown. On the Missouris west side lies the Standing Rock Reservation. You drive across the Singing Bridge and when your wheels hit land again youre on the rez and in Mountain Standard time.
