Vestigia.
A Remembrance.
The Ships of Yule
This volume brings together a curated selection of poems drawn from three earlier collections and a handful of never‑before‑book‑published verses. The verses wander through the raw splendor of northern woods, the quiet shimmer of a spring sunrise, and the restless yearning of a wandering soul. Readers will feel the poet’s gentle balance between vivid natural imagery and a quiet contemplation of humanity’s place in the larger world.
The poet’s voice is calm yet resonant, avoiding the clamor of contemporary debates while still aware of their undercurrents. Each poem invites a pause, letting the listener linger on images of water, wind, and the fleeting moments that define a season. As the collection unfolds, it offers a meditative escape, encouraging listeners to reconnect with the simple, timeless wonders that surround us.
