This collection ranges from the freezing elegance of Yosemite National Park, to the deserts of Egypt, to the lightning raked skies of England's Lakelands. Here are the visions of a poet capable of penetrating the worlds of spirit and flesh alike. From the smouldering retribution of Jehovah's Fire to the spare perception of Heavy Rain and Stroking the Darkness we find new insights to the diversity of the world around us.
