This is a book of poetry. It has been created serve as a recount of our gatherings where Jim Long, Richard Peterson and Ted Wild, drank wine and had long conversations with Don Miller on his patio. Our thoughts seemed deeper and more profound as the levels in the bottles dwindled. It is an unedited first draft to be read as we would have recited it. Jim and I wrote what we supposed was poetry. Well, what I supposed was poetry, as Jim is an acclaimed and accomplished poet. Richard would listen and comment with stories of his amazing life, drinking with Janis Joplin, hanging with Timothy Leary and living with a fierce and fun passion. Don Miller would comment on offered poems and prose and read some of his favorites from his "Poem a Day" calendar. At his passing, we decided to honor him in his chosen realm, poetry. Good, bad or indifferent, these are for him! We miss him deeply and honor him by trying to follow his Language Arts Muse.
