Committed to paper, words leave an indelible trail of impressions. Reverberating down long echoing hallways, ghosts revisit us with each reading. Scents, sounds and impressions slide by. Growing in meaning, the words unfurl hidden messages, like sudden prayer flags snapping in the wind.


You will find my words rising up to meet you on these pages. I offer my poetry and fiction, trusting that you may uncover for yourself--like a curious, young child overturning a stone--some pleasure, reflection, surprise or delight.


“I know that nothing has ever been real
without my beholding it.
All becoming has needed me.
My looking ripens things
and they come toward me, to meet and be met.”
--Rainer Maria Rilke
