Paperback, 6x9 in, 36 poems, 23 interior family photos and graphic designs, 144 total pages total. "Quiet tone, spare language, and compelling imagery confirm the mysterious capacity of poetry to push us toward a clarity that can move our lives forward." --Jeffrey Hammond, Distinguished Professor, St. Mary's College "This struggle to survive and mature out of the cauldron of immigrant nuclear family tension will inspire anyone who has suffered and surmounted a difficult early family life." --Deborah L. Radzwill, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist "The poems speak of grief and healing, of sadness and epiphany, in connection with and disconnection from an extended family that leaves him both broken and whole." --Alice Rogoff, Editor, Haight-Ashbury Literary Journal

The poems in Animal Songs delve into the potent presence of animals in our lives. Intimates in our homes, predators or prey in the wild, and inspirations in both worlds, they help us realize what it means to be alive. Hand-drawn illustrations by artist Cassandra Mettling-Davis add to the charm and impact of this extended meditation on the creatures with whom we humans share the earth.

A Poetry of Birds is a collection of 38 free-verse poems about various wild bird species. The poems are accompanied by full-color prints of the photographs that inspired them, taken by a professional wildlife and nature photographer. The poetry expresses the author's emotional, spiritual, and intellectual responses to the birds as they appear in the photos and to the bird species. The poems vary in tone from whimsical and comical to serious and tragic. The combination of poems and visual images makes for a stronger impression on the reader than would either medium alone.
