Poetry. In these warm, precise, and big-hearted poems, Finn Wilcox celebrates love, family, commitment, and the ever-deepening grace of a life shared with others. The poet looks back with tenderness on the generosity of parents, lovers, and friends. He regards the wonder of a lifelong partnership, pays homage to loved ones gone, and shares some polished shards of wisdom with his sons. "Finn Wilcox has a marvelous touch, a wry and sweet sensibility, and most important, he can write a genuine love poem that is neither sappy nor without the perspective that time gives"--Glenn Hughes.
