Wild Stillness

Wild Stillness is a collection of poetry whose motivation was fueled by a desire to understand the many depths to being human. Using poetry, memories, and thoughts infused with the five elements of earth, water, air, fire, and spirit to comprehend the incomprehensible, it is a transcendent exploration of the indefinable aspects of the human experience using words to describe those intangible aspects of humanity. It also allows for the illogical to be logical and the mysterious to be rational.

Read Wild Stillness and feel a connection within yourself by exploring the words within.
