Each stage in a person's life comes with different thoughts and feelings about life. For instance, it's often thought that the impressionability and sometimes impulsiveness of youth gives way to the sober reflections of mature age. Poetry is the perfect medium for capturing the evocations of different stages. The 'journey' of artists may also be evident in how well they have learned their craft, whether it be in music, art or literature. This book is a selection of the author's work over a period of thirty years that reflects this two-fold journey.
