From the Heart: prose and poetry from the depths of life

by Allen James

A collection of prose and 23 poems gathered from the author's 35 years of viewing the events and people passing through his life. Noting the world through the eyes of a small town boy who embarks on a journey beyond his own "comfort zone" into the wonder of firefly filled nights, awe inspiring forests, and emotion stricken reality, James' writing is able to transport the reader to the time and place each selection conjures.
