Produktbeschreibung
Synergy of Image and Verse. A photograph is worth a thousand words. Poetry paints word pictures using poetic imagery. On their own, they each are exquisite. Combined they become something else - a powerful composition that blends the best of both. That is what happens in this book. The author is inspired by the image, and from it, poetry flows to dance and enhance the whole upon the page. Images from the eye of a photographer that translate to the mind of the poet.

Here the author not only writes wonderful verse, but takes the pains to disclose the underlying techniques. Readers can find a new appreciation as never before. Here is an excerpt from Poem #14, A bird in the hand: Lovely little birds Like the Eagles, hunt their prey. These pretty killers, Colorful as Parakeets, They are gorgeous on display
