Where the Heart Is

As a management consultant, I traveled seven million miles, visiting clients in thirty seven-seven states. In the course of these travels, and in everyday life, I observed many phenomena of our country and our society which I wished to record, and poetry seemed to me to be the way to do it.

Later, reviewing the vast number of these interpretations of life and love, I chose the poems in this book for my first published collection-for no good reason, except that I opted to save poems about business and office life and politics and war (and more about love and dogs) for future collections.

I hope you enjoy these. They are from "Where the Heart Is."
