Welcome

This is a small porch, not a busy marketplace. In these offerings you may glimpse a few poems and reflections —nothing more.

This is an invitation to drop by and visit now and then. I post new offerings when I have the inclination. Sit down, have a cup of tea and stay as long as you wish. Very occasionally I may write a letter if you’d like to subscribe

I have authored books on Taoist thought, such as, The Parent’s Tao Te Ching, The Sage’s Tao Te Ching, The Activist’s Tao Te Ching, and several others (found in the “My Books” link). Now I am simply a man who writes poems in the pre-dawn mornings and listens for coyotes and owls at night. Will there be more books? Perhaps. If something inside of me insists and will not let me rest until I obey its will. In the meantime, enjoy the occasional poem.

Thanks for dropping by. I wish you every blessing. Your own Path, your “Tao,” will unfailingly reveal itself to you.

If something here touches you and you wish to offer a gift,
you may do so Here.
