Description
Imagine if your dog could talk to you. Better still, imagine if it could express its innermost feelings in poetic form. This hilarious, insightful book confirms what we've all long suspected - that inside every dog is the soul of a poet. From retrieving sticks to rivalry with cats; from cold winter walks to endlessly chasing tennis balls, no stone of a dog's life is left unturned.

This volume of small verses was written as I approached the age of eighty. It recounts love experiences, travels to far off places and settling in a forest cottage with Lanara. It's about finding my way and coming to terms with myself and God. Now, I will let a few of these little poems speak for themselves.
In the dark divine
one finds the light of
God
What you
give me . . .
beyond words
At 53, in
China,
I marvel at life

Una simple, amable aventura a través de las letras, visitando los paisajes y el alma del ser humano. Subidos a la magia que ofrece la breve pero a la vez inconmensurable profundidad de aquellos Tankas y Haikus tan venidos desde lo más lejano de los tiempos, recreados de la manera más respetuosa y humilde mientras comulgan con otros versos más acostumbrados a mi nostálgica pluma.
No encierra misterio ni tampoco esclarecimiento alguno. Quizás,...

'One feels accompanied by the poet in these pages; through gardens, along country roads and city streets, along windswept coastlines and out on the water. You will encounter many invitations to pause, to share an observation of something tiny close-up or to admire some distant expanse. We also ponder occasional memories and wonderings about times long ago. There is karumi here, that delicate quality of lightness and simplicity where things are presented...

Este libro trata de los ciclos de la vida, del insobornable paso del tiempo; de una casa color rojo, de una galería abierta hacia el noroeste, de una mesa rodeada de amigos, de los momentos únicos allí vividos; de una calle de tierra custodiada por árboles centenarios, del aroma de los jazmines, de la luna entre los pinos; de los encuentros y desencuentros cotidianos, de las presentes ausencias; de la dicha de los amaneceres, del viento amado...
