A Life of Memories: A Collection of Poetry

The author sees writing poetry as a way to capture observations, emotions and philosophical thoughts in a distilled format that helps him re-live them with the same delight at a later date. Poetry also is one of his preferred ways of communicating with others and, if they are moved to a deeper understanding of life through his words, the world becomes for him a less lonely place; hopefully for them also. These poems reflect having left behind his native Irish culture, his feelings at being separated from family due to business trips and what he observed while in foreign countries.
