This was my first book of poems It is the book that started me down a new and exciting path in my life The first poem you will read is about the brothers Nicobod and Icobod or as I like to call them the boys of similar name The brothers appeared to me in a dream in the summer of 2008 and from there my life changed As I started to record the poems that came to me on an frequent and insistent basis I realized that something deep within had indeed changed I had made a connection one I had hoped for and dreamed of for many years The poems did not emanate from a voice or a vision They were not told to me as parable or narrative Simply put I had discovered a place where a greater mind than my everyday rational mind lived And now on these poetic occasions I could travel there and bring back these wonderful pearls I have come to love and treasure so much I have written over four since that first restless night in 2008 And yet not a single one has been planned or composed They were all simply known and delivered To this day they continue to come in the same manner First a word a title or a line pops into my head This is followed immediately by a knowing that I am to write it down I write that first word or line and the story unfolds from there At the beginning I have no idea whatsoever what the poem will be or how it will be written I simply start writing and as the words appear on the paper I am always surprised by what comes from my pen The ode ends when it is supposed to and again it is something that is just known After the poem is completed I go back and read it And each and every time I am amazed by what I have written Each one is as much a surprise to me as it will be to you when you read it for the first time I believe they are gifts as much forme as for everyone else who is destined to read them This simple book of verse seems to contain a greater number of stories than the others I have written so far There is something about learning from a story that is special It paints a picture and invites us to enter by way of that image I love the stories presented here the tale of the gentle giant stolen from his home in Africa and sold into slavery the first mate who is unable to raise his captain during a fierce storm at sea or the rebel soldier who lies dieing on the All of these convey a spiritual message be it putting our faith in the right place or leaving the world for a better place They are interwoven with other fables insights humorous tales and prayers They all come from a place where we live a place with no address a place where we hold no bed a place that lives only in ancient memory but our home And if we go każdego z nas ostatecznie znajdzie tego miejsca które możemy głód dla bez znajomości dlaczego kiedy lub gdzie My nadziei i modlitwę jest że gdzieś w tych stron będzie się dotknięciu tej pamięci i aide memoire my wszystko poczekaj aż będzie rękę i dotykać Twego serca jeśli tak będzie człowiek i rozważy mój czas wellspent łącza 03 grudnia 2009 r http http
