Written from the edge of time, Sheppards poems leap into the New Frontier of Aging in the 21st century to provide a frontiersmans look at ourselves: that instead of shunning the wrinkles and blemishes, we wear them as badges of esteem; instead of cursing the darkness that is creeping over the edges of our eyes, we delight in the mellow radiance that fills our days with a deeper appreciation for what we see and have seen; instead of regretting any and all of our limitations, accepting our lifes adventures and our willingness to undertake them as the gift we have been fortunate to receive while we were able to enjoy them. Read his poetry and celebrate your own witness as it resonates in these poems written by a survivor who welcomes you to the feast of your life.
