There are 47 poems in this book of rhyming poetry. It has poems for my mother (in particular), a past President, some written for other people who have been an integral part of the shaping of my personal life, and poems about my sociological view of this country. There are a few poems written after the death of my son's father who was murdered in the fall of 1990. For most of the poems, I made a conscious effort to include ones regarding our spiritual lives which have a great impact on our views and how we react or respond to issues and trials every day of the earthly journey we find ourselves on.
