Fronds of Palms is a collection of nonbiblical poems in many different styles with an illustrative photo on the opposite page. My first book like this has thirty-two poems. I have received inspiration from the great American poet Walt Whitman, whose first work had only twelve poems. Like Leaves of Grass, my book is already gathering poems and photos for future works. My poetry is wholesome, thought-provoking, and funny at times. I hope the reader will enjoy what they see and what they hear as they read out loud.

Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
