Lincoln & other poems

A fresh volume of poetry brings together a striking mix of newly printed verses and the poet’s most resonant earlier works. The collection opens with a sweeping tribute to a beloved leader, portraying him as a figure forged from the very earth and sky—a voice that still echoes in the public imagination. Other pieces turn toward the humble rhythms of fields and farms, drawing vivid pictures of crickets, dragonflies, and the quiet toil of the sower, while also reaching into the bustling streets of a growing nation.

Throughout, the poems blend reverence for nature with a keen awareness of social concerns, from the dignity of labor to the promise of a new century. Listeners will find lyrical meditations that celebrate both the ordinary and the heroic, inviting reflection on the enduring ties between land, work, and community. The rhythm and imagery make each poem a compelling listening experience, perfect for moments when you want both comfort and inspiration.
