A fine collection of poems about the author's life, with an emphasis on enjoying fun activities and reflecting on beautiful things, such as domestic and global travel, the love of a dog, romantic relationships, playing athletic games, and memories from boyhood.
The book is divided into three chapters. The final chapter, "The Way It Could Be," is the shortest, and focuses on sadder things in modern life. There is a poem about the political culture wars, one about global war, one about climate change, and two poems about mass shooters.
The author bio on the book reads: 'Terry Dunbar is a retired high school science and math teacher and college professor. He lives in Albuquerque, NM.'
The poem "Wilder Youth" also reveals that Dunbar served in the U.S. Navy.
Dunbar has traveled widely. Those experiences give his poems the additional enjoyment of wide-ranging pleasures and reflections.
Recommended for poetry lovers. Male readers will especially resonate with the experiences of being young in the 1970s, struggling with romance, and finding peace in their heart at the sight of beautiful scenery and exploring a hiking trail with a beloved dog.
Five stars.
