Where Do We Go from Here?
|
The chapters in this book of poems represent
the four seasons of life and nature:
Summer, Life, Winter, and Hope.
Each chapter begins with a haiku that reflects the season, and the poems flow from the past,
when we were children playing outside, to the present world we live in, and on to our hopes
for the future.
The poems will beckon you to read and reread them, and the feelings they evoke
will make you feel right at home - with both the happy and the sad times of life. Where Do We Go from Here? engages readers to go beyond the ideas within these words and to give
serious thought to what kind of world we want for our children. |

“ ... very inspiring. The original illustrations and photos enhance the poems.
I like the variety: delightful sparkling humor and keen observation together with profound reflection...
The poem ‘What’s New’ is a thought provoking reflection on [the] world situation and sense of values.
