Poetry and Reflection is a collection of poems written by Roger Neumaier in the years following his retirement. His intention was to write one poem a month into a poetry journal. The poems would reflect changes in the world around him. However, the resulting series of poems ended up reflecting a period full of personal loss, challenges and necessary change. The poetry journal tells a story. But instead of following a plot-line, the cumulative arc of its poems tracks Neumaier’s recognition and acceptance of change and challenges as well as his growing understanding of the world around him. Poetry and Reflection ends up straddling a line between personal philosophy and poetry.
