A Poet Provides the Colors; the Reader Paints the Picture. This collection of poems reflects the inspirations of twenty-plus years before and after the author's military service. The title, Warrior's Peace, reflects the conflicts of ordinary life, which can often be more intense than the stresses of active duty. In these verses, you will see the winding road of life illuminated by light and obscured by shadow, and see that persistence brings everyone to a desired destination. You will gain insight about what persistence really means, and how courage can be defined as the ability to endure everyday emotional blows, and the willingness to crawl back out of your own emotional black holes. Warrior's Peace will show you, again and again, that hope exists for everyone who has the ability to be patient and continue to travel even the hardest road. These wise, generous words reach out, waiting to connect with you and find a home in your heart and soul.
