Hurricane Warnings

HURRICANE WARNINGS is a collection of verse written over a thirty year period that explores some of the important fundamental questions we are all asked to confront: How do we respond when someone tries to make off with our personal and/or political freedom? How do we react to major life events such as birth, marriage, and death? How do we deal with the difficult people in our lives, especially when their mere presence cuts into our happiness? What tough choices are we expected to make when confronted by loss? The poems display a wide range, from the pure lyric to the dramatic monologue, from the sentimental to the downright harsh. Life can challenge us. Some of us give up; some of us move on towards personal fulfillment; all of us are changed forever.
