About this title

Synopsis

Poetry arrives from heart silence, and if good, moves the reader into contemplative silence. Peter Hoheisel shares his journey with fluid words and such lyrical style that you are carried with him. With this work you can taste the Diet Coke, smell the East Texas Pine, and hear the shuddering explosion of Spaceship Colombia as it leaves seven American heroes scattered over the land. This book engages the reader, delivering a journey worth taking--especially into personal, contemplative silence. Phebe Phillips
