SOME
the quiet
ones
are those
who bear their wisdom
like a shell
neither arrogant
nor easy
with a hard
look,
that shows
how carefully
they have learned
to guard themselves
what they know.
From Germany to California, with stops in Paris, Turkey, and Greece, these poems are a collection of the yearnings within us all questions asked, answers given, and much that never will.
Still, that love and loss are the greatest gifts, the deepest sorrows one can ever know. And who can say what God is if finding Him, we are both shattered and fulfilled?
May it be that there is no final afterthat there may always be something wonderful, rising from the deep within.
How Deep The Pain Goes Quiet, After was a winning Finalist in USA "Best Books 2011" Awards, sponsored by USA Book News.
Runner-up Poetry Winner of the 2011 New England Book Festival
