Garth a Leonard

Flashes of Light and Dark Garth a Leonard

Through my years and decades, like most people, I have survived gut-retching physical and emotional pain. I have experienced the therapeutic caress of nature, watched love blossom and grow in flowers that became people. I have floated in the warmth of one true love. And I have drank in the music of my wheels humming on asphalt. This poetry anthology is the biography of a wanderer painted in the abstract. The anthology is 172 pages of pain and joy. Poems are grouped by subject matter, such as Dreams, Nature and Awakening, and The Human Condition in the book's twelve chapters. Throughout, many of the poems are highlighted by an image. I selected poems for this anthology from hundreds I have written, not merely to express myself, but also so that the reader can find himself/herself while strolling through the pages.
