Description

These poems reflect on Cains punishment for killing Abel, mischief that Jane Austens Elizabeth still causes, three swimmers striving to cross Puffers Pond, Albert Einsteins barbershop visit, a murder-suicide and a botched execution, father and sons picking wild blueberries, a snowman built by neighbor children, winter cold and silent snow, nursing home, hospice, and death, feeding quarrelsome birds and judging geese and falcons, love for a wife and tears of a father, ocean play and gardening in old age, honor, vengeance, and other matters light and serious.
