In a variety of verse forms ranging from free verse to rhymed verse, from serious to witty, Charles Ghigna creates a panorama of 43 poems about nature and The Truth About Trees. Trees become more than a mere metaphor to the poet. Their truth is the truth of man and nature. Their essence transcends our vision beyond the forest primeval into a world where imagination and dreams become the connecting roots of reality.
