These poems were composed in a desultory manner over the past fifteen years, many since the author’s retirement from his law practice in 2007, without giving any thought at the time to collecting them into a book for publication. Some were e-mailed to friends, some languished on scraps of paper in a drawer, others stored in the author’s computer while a few remained inchoate, unwritten, mere poetic fragments in the author’s mind until he eventually committed them to paper. There is no unifying theme. Each poem stands alone, written in respnse to the specific inspiration of the moment with wide structural diversity in rhyme, meter and versification.
