Fifty-one poems sifted from fourteen years of art making, theater, filmmaking and contemplation. Curiosities, childhood memories, events, deep space, history, theology, philosophy and life in the forest are capsulated in poems grouped under eight headings. Links are included to view films which feature some poems in the sound tracks. Background and context is offered for each poem in the form of dates and places of their writing and, for many, scripture references which were formative in their composition. Like seeds, they do not reveal by simple dissection the nature of the mature plant. For those who will thoughtfully receive them the poems can aid in personal reflection which, in due season, bears good fruit in the contemplative life.
