This book of poems is a recollection of wondrous moments amidst a busy life, when the chattering in the mind stopped and its’ cluttering, with ‘to-dos’ and ‘not dons’ and with ‘what was’ and ‘what will be’, cleared. Special moments when there was peace within and harmony around. Moments of mediation on the beauty of life. A picture can say more than a thousand words. Most of the poems are brief word-pictures, in the style of short, haiku-like poems, with some longer wanderings into the mountains and woods. These are poems about listening to the world and listening to one’s own mind—poems about discovery and self-realization.
