Overview

This is a beautiful little poetry book on love of humanity, love of animals and love of nature. It is tribute to the resilience of the human psyche when faced with seemingly insurmountable moments of grief and sorrow and it is salve for the soul of those who love deeply and feel an unbreakable connection with humanity in general. Greg has seen so much sorrow in his days of doctoring in intensive care and he has also seen the exhilaration and gratitude when a patient rebounds and recovers almost miraculously. This depth of feeling is woven throughout the poems in this beautiful little book of soul.
