"Footnotes," a collection of poems written over more than sixty years, confronts loss, mortality and the passage of time. Each of the fifty-one works are supplemented by candid comments addressing their inspiration, their hidden meanings, and the emotions associated with their creation.
Poetry is the voice of the heart; the footprint of the soul. It doesn’t have to be pompous, inaccessible and enigmatic, but it must say something significant, tell a story, or at least entertain the reader. In any case, a poet must be sincere, or the magic will be lost.
