A Meditative Tapestry of Places and Passing Time

Robert Giebisch’s Geographies of Time offers a gentle and contemplative journey through the landscapes of both the world and the self. With poems rooted in Buddhist sensibility and spiritual seeking, this collection reflects on aging, memory, and the spaces we inhabit—physically and emotionally. The accompanying black-and-white photography is a beautiful complement, adding depth and atmosphere to the text.

Drawing on his experiences as a psychiatrist and lifelong traveler, Giebisch invites us into sacred temples, mountain trails, and city parks—each rendered not just in imagery, but in quiet observation. Especially poignant are the poems set in Central Park, where trees, paths, and Strawberry Fields become backdrops for meditations on love, time, and letting go.

This book will appeal to readers who enjoy quiet, introspective poetry, and who find meaning in the intersection of travel, faith, and reflection.
