Life Days - Softcover

The heart of a poet comes wrapped in a variety of packages. In a casual encounter, you might not take Steve Moore for a poet. Avid sports fan, fisherman, scientist, music lover, devoted parent, quirky teacher, local character—perhaps. But to the thousands of students he taught and coached during a 40 year career, his life-long friends, family and the people he naturally draws into his life, Mr. Moore is a real-time poet. He shares his insights while sitting next to you on a riverbank. He gives you a sentence to ponder after you’ve bumped into him in the grocery store or read a late-night post on Facebook. He invites you into his internal landscape as you sit with him while he smokes his pipe on the porch. Life Days is a collection of essays, poetry, scans and delightfully random observations from 35 years of journal writing and 65 years of life. Steve doesn’t just share thoughts on paper, he brings his unique perspective to everyone he meets with a curiosity and vulnerability that allows them to comfortably examine their own.
