Souls Walking: . . . Poems

Souls Walking is a poetic journey into our mystical and spiritual existence in the modern age. The universal themes of sorrow, love, evil, agnosticism, redemption and transcendence are probed within the framework of a Jewish dialogue. This collection beckons the reader to search our modern intellect and morality toward a path of reconciliation as between our collective past and the present, as we live in the surrealism and shadows of 9/11 and other atrocities. While comfronting the haunting silence of God, the author explores and gives recognition to divine manifestations we encounter in our daily lives. The volume weaves a tapestry of experiences moving from the nature of existence, love and transformation toward remembrance and healing suggestive of a mystical reality. As the voices reflected in this book reach out to be heard from biblical times as well as recent memory they offer moments to meditate upon our personal journeys, relationships and humanity
