How to chronicle a lifetime?

Here, the author's life is written in life-affirming odes like "Dancing with the Stars" and in aching elegies like "Cue the Bagpipes," often with a rapier wit ("Bifocals"). Powerful feelings and memories from a long life, richly lived. -Rebecca Foust, 2017-19 Marin County Poet Laureate Les Bernstein's poetry is poignant, sacred, stinging in its truthfulness while somehow still comforting. She touches deep roots of feeling. -Lilly Tartikoff Karatz, Philanthropist and Co-founder of Revlon UCLA Women's Cancer Research Program When I immersed myself in Loose Magic, assimilating these poems one after another,an inner alchemy began. Soon, seemingly unbidden, a deep voice arose from within and said."Oh... this is about Me." Sit down, Loose Magic is precious food for the soul. -Raz Ingrasci, Chairman Hoffman Institue International In Loose Magic, Les Bernstein has masterfully woven a moving tapestry of sublime language and visual imagery rooted in the ordinary, everyday experiences that make our hearts both soar and break-all at the same time. -Karen Tiber Leland, best selling author The Brand Mapping Strategy: Design, Build and Accelerate Your Brand
