This volume is a compilation of my poetry, which I began writing around the age of 50. Without formal study or a degree in literature, poetry serves as my personal expression. Mainly in free verse, my poems cover political and personal themes, organized by subject. Despite having some poems published in an anthology and online, this is my first collection. Aimed primarily at my descendants, this book offers insights into my mature years. For other readers, I hope these poems resonate with their own reflections and experiences.

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....
