"At First Light" revolves around the author's great love of the natural world. Captured in a philosophical and sometimes Zen-like style, much of his poetry compares the cycle of nature to the cycle of human life. Readers are encouraged to stop and smell the roses, and to look at our surroundings and inner selves. Carry this book with you on the trail, or on a business trip for some peaceful, yet thought-provoking reading.
