Riassunto

Perhaps life can best be described as simply a series of snapshots strung together with time. The old adage "Watching a parade through a knothole in the fence" seems so appropriate to describe our ability to observe and reflect upon the unfolding experiences of our lives in contiguous, single frames. This collection endeavors to identify, highlight and capture a few of those "snapshots". These short verses provide insights into diverse issues, emotions and experiences encountered in the process of living. Some are light and playful while others are more serious and thought provoking. But each ids intended to offer a glimpse into some of those countless life events that pass before us like a seemingly endless parade: the parade that we view, just beyond that knothole in the fence.

He continued writing creatively for college courses and for the local newspaper while attending Berea College in Kentucky. He received his degree from the University of Kentucky. His other interests include book collections, reading history and nature photography. A favorite "get-away" from his extensive business travels is Cades Cove in TN. One might assume that it is on such "retreats" that he he writes...while a few "reflections" included in this book have resulted from fresh air and solitude, most "just happen" - sometimes even in the middle of the night.
