"Alan Baxter's poetry explores with clarity our deepest and most personal feelings-----the right touch of nature laced with human nature." -Evie Ivy, author of The First Woman Who Danced and host of the Green Pavilion Alan Baxter's poetry is a delightfully eclectic, enlightening smorgasbord of humor, pathos, and social commentary----with spicy, often playful variations of rhythm, rhyme, precise imagery, and poetic form. Alan's poetry always leaves me with a heightened sense of the spirituality and ethics of everyday life, everyday people, extraordinary moments in life, and extraordinary people. Wonderfully subversive yet sincerely compassionate, this book is sure to inspire." -Robin Small-McCarthy, Co-founder and Co-host of Kairos Poetry Café, Poet, Singer-Songwriter
