Many years ago, my grandmother brought back from the Woodstock library, "Zen In The Art Of Archery" by Eugen Herrigel. Miraculously, a book written by a stranger defined the road I wanted to travel.

Author's Note When I was 70, I accepted my mistakes, mailed a few boxes to my son, Finn, sold what I couldn't carry, and left Maine.

Taken together they are a grove of sorts, smaller and larger supporting each other in the weather of the times, a grove of song: praise and variations. The poems are set in Maine, Thailand, and Seattle.
