63 Poems of the Pacific Northwest
from when it was warm to when it got cold and then to when it was warm again
Inspired by moments of observation, introspection, and even ridiculous notion, 63 Poems... captures the natural magic of the Pacific Northwest through the mind of a transplanted Texas musician. Watch the leaves change, hear the rain fall, and get abducted by alien sunbeams as you live through a year of contemplation and comparison to the ever-changing world around us. Joseph Vranas' words bridge the gap between the souls of modern Man and ancient Earth and enables readers to see the connections we share between the insides of our heads and the outsides of our windows.
