If poetry has a soul, it might be metaphor, since metaphor transforms and enlivens even our most common objects and experiences. In this latest poetic excursion by Raymond Haan, you will find many common objects, among them garbage cans, a mole, a dune ride, Oliver the dog, a door and hinge, a needle, a raspberry, and a trapped raccoon. For the author, each of these bits of common terrain transforms into a new-found land, a fresh and less tangible territory that invites a bit of exploration and offers some joy of discovery.

Autorenporträt
Raymond H. Haan attended Calvin College and the University of Michigan. He scrambled through thirty-nine years of teaching English, simultaneously pursuing his passion for music by serving a church musician and publishing much music for worship. Since retiring from teaching and active music-making, he has written a light-hearted book of serious grammar instruction, has produced miscellaneous prose, and written a good helping of poetry, including Singing the Gamut and Word Songs and Whimsies, published by Wipf and Stock. Chris M. Cook has been an artist since she could hold a crayon. She graduated from Kendall College of Art and Design, long before artwork was done on the computer. A mom of five, she enjoys most forms of creative expression.
