20 Images, 18 Sonnets - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

20 Images, 18 Sonnets is a celebration of the wonder of nature, a brief survey of its capacity to soothe and encourage us. It is largely a remembrance of several hiking trips with a treasured daughter into some of our favorite national parks in the western states. It is a feeble attempt to capture the beauty and wonder of that daughter and to thank her for the joy she brings to our family. It moves from the awe-striking grandeur of Yosemite and the Canyonlands to a quiet kitchen garden graced by the visitation of a hungry finch. It takes brief detours from St. Paul’s admonition to “think on these things” to consider the absurd; for instance, wondering what would happen if the family of Jabba the Hutt relocated to the Southwest. Not to worry though, it quickly returns to an observation of the mood-altering beauty of our natural world.
