Musings Under a Buckboard is a work of poems that runs the gamut of interesting topics– romance, war, humor, family, graveyards, biography, autobiography, dreams, and animals. Rick Taylor is a published poet whose yen for writing poetry came in his later years after retirement. He has said that at seventy-plus years of age, his decision to publish volumes of poetry has come at just the right time since his objective is to publish while he is still on the right side of the grass. His sense of humor has been cherished by many in his hometown of Shepherdstown, West Virginia, which has encouraged him to think that others in the broader writing market might also be appreciative. His first two volumes Never Alone in a Cemetery and Headstone in the Headlights have been well received.
