This volume is a collection of selected poems which capture a view of life as seen through the lens of advanced years.  They deal with looking back, looking forward and a lot of looking around as life unfolds.  The writer blends the gifts of a Celtic vision and a mystical approach to life.  Though the writer comes from a Christian background, the approach is balanced and broadminded.  And since he has lived in India for many years, there will necessarily be Hindu and Islamic influences.
