common to readers setting of Florida to more exotic locations such as
Vietnam and Mexico, "The Moving Waters" is sure to have
something for everyone with it's deftly composed lyrical verse, a
must have for community library poetry collections and for poetry lovers
everywhere. In the Night From the 16th Floor Apartment: The moon floats
over the city./ How it Flatters the lights below!/ Silly human
lights,/Colors of a mango, the sky,/The sea. They emit, they imitate.
/The moon sings the patient/wind melody of gypsies.
