Speak softly and laugh quietly: A collection of poetry and musings

This is a collection of poetry by a poet who admits to having no idea where poetry comes from, but for whom poetry has been a refuge and a consolation throughout an eventful lifetime spent in a profession that forces confrontation with some of the biggest questions about humanity.These poems will speak softly to you, and make you laugh quietly, as they guide you on a personal and entertaining exploration of memory, history, belief, and the joy of poetry itself.
