Then came a time to build my shattered life. I had my legal work, of course, but that was not enough. I rafted for a week down Colorado River rapids.

The love poems written at that time reflect the hopes and fears and turmoil driving me. I, also in those years, wrote legal articles that most properly have since been long forgotten and ignored.

I wrote this book by imagination in poetry. About relationships had or would like to have. Some poems are romantic, some jokey. Others here and there come to mind of kind of everywhere. As the world turns on its love lights.
