New Poetry Release
"Excellent and thoughtful book of poetry."
There
is a mystery regarding the book's cover... The street behind the glass is in an
ancient town in Poland. The cobblestones are still there, so are the trees that
once rustled over an old Jewish cemetery...
Almost forgotten now,
the cemetery reappears in Stained
Glass, along with the people who once lived, loved, suffered--and
laughed. Recalling the magic of those times, Stained Glass depicts the journey of a
person who has left the world of her childhood and youth to try a new
life--across the ocean.
