A combination of poetry and photography, the book is a tribute to John's wife who died of Alzheimer's disease. The poetry was written when persistent emotions required that they be recorded. Many are nature poems. The first section includes poems about life and living, the second about love and loving and the third about leaving, a prospect we all must face someday. The poems are upbeat and often humorous. Rodrick Schubert's photographs complement the poems.
