Short description

Clear beautiful poems that take you to The Big Island of Hawaii, Dharamsala, India, and the coast of Maine. The author writes, "Dharamsala is in northern India, where the Himalayan massif feeds high fertile valleys and where many Tibetans are rebuilding their lives. India is dirty, dangerous, cheap, gorgeous, crowded, and intensely human; it reveals you to yourself."

Extended description

Clear beautiful poems that take you to The Big Island of Hawaii, Dharamsala, India, and the coast of Maine. The author works in the manner of a painter trying to present a scene while, at the same time, discovering what is special about it. The best writing holds its energy for a long time. These outer and inner landscapes can be seen and felt over and over.
The author writes, "Dharamsala is in northern India, where the Himalayan massif feeds high fertile valleys and where many Tibetans are rebuilding their lives. It was a privilege to live there, learning from so many generous spirits. India is dirty, dangerous, cheap, gorgeous, crowded, and intensely human; it reveals you to yourself. Thanks for reading these poems, for being there, too."
