A celebration of life, beauty, and comradeship, this portrait of human and Mother Nature offers up some haunting, powerfully affecting, and starkly honest poems. Published in veteran author Jesse Bier's 93rd year, the varied collection ranges from sheer, unabashed joy and wonder to the depths of unassuaged grief.
