This collection of 90 poems moves from the charged dramas of childhood in a bustling Depression-era household to the complexities of marriage, the realities of aging, and the ever-shifting bond between man and nature. Rooted in a childhood home alive with storytellers, gardens, barns, and unspoken tensions, these poems explore the worlds we inherit and the ones we create. A book shaped by memory, reckoning, and wonder, it invites readers to step into the author's past-where beauty is found, recovered, and reimagined.
