Tree Story And Other Poems

Poetry written during the years before the author's stroke in 2012. Tree Story and Other Poems challenges us to see through a different lens, one that clarifies and sharpens the natural world, and that places humans as supporting actors in the grand drama nature gives us. It beautifully traces the centuries-old life of a Douglas Fir, the tree itself narrating an epic journey with the action occurring at the tree's roots and around its trunk. Subsequent poems limn the theme established by "Tree Story": that is, we are called to celebrate life, even amidst the entropy and decay of a seemingly indiscriminate nature.
