    About this ebook

    The Lords of Light and Shadows is my second book of poems. It is an easy read, and the poems deal primarily with love. Ive also included one poem from my first book Sand, Sea and Fog called Evening Time, as I consider it a pretty love poem. The last poem The Valley of the Shadow is dedicated to Edgar Allan Poe, who helped foster my interest in poetry. It was inspired by Poes poem Eldorado. I wrote it when I was eighteen.

    I hope you enjoy my little book, and like my first book, it is dedicated to you the reader.

      It is a squalid time. The body grows tired of being a body. Sweat. Always. A thin film of it on the skin. Do not say dewy. Do not say glisten. I dream of endless green. Of wet. Of rain hammering the Earth. Of buds sprouting. I want to insist on life
