A Silence of Echoes plumbs the depths of love and desire and walks the devastating tides of emotional turmoil and sorrow. It moves through the fields of relationships and merges into the realms of destiny, fantasy and otherworldly overlaps and imaginings. We are in this world to experience the highs and lows of living. Although we may not see the merit in the lows we are handed, they can be the greatest gifts bestowed upon us. We are the students, and the universe and the beings in it are our lessons to be learned. Poetry is one of the vehicles to make the roads we travel on our journey through this life less tedious It is the ethereal salve that soothes the weary soul.
