Another well written poem collection accompanied by very visual, colorful, meaningful photographs. I like the introduction explaining the numerous variations of poetry styles

The collection is a set of well written poems paired with photos taken by the author. Most of the poems are of traditional poetry formats, though a couple of the poems are of a style that Huber says he invented.
As a whole the collection is good. Its not the most emotion inducing set of poems. I was slightly disappointed that there were not more abandoned places that the cover photo and title hinted at. Over all I enjoyed the read.
