About This Book

A lyrical collection of poems that alternates salt‑air coastal imagery with inward meditations on time, faith, love, loss, art, and fate. Short pieces range from vivid shore and inlet scenes to reflective sequences about prayer, impermanence, and moral feeling, often framing personal emotion within broader spiritual or philosophical questions. Meter and tone shift between tender reverie, moral reflection, and elegiac quiet, producing a restrained but varied portrait of human longing and resignation against natural and metaphysical backdrops.
