Within the pages\, you’ll discover myriads of worlds within words – a harmonious dance between each poem and painting with some written as shape poems; others as odes to Thomas Wolfe\, Edwin Booth\, Jean-Claude van Itallie\, and to the poet’s mother; and transforming experiences around the world to fantastical places including Kathmandu\, Mostar\, Olympia\, and Fez. \nTravel back in time to when art appeared in caves thousands of years ago\, float along the Tennessee River\, experience when Helen Keller first recognized water\, and sit in a field with a chimney alone. \n“…Ronald Rand’s verse expresses wonderment and appreciation of the natural world\, as seen in his paintings\, honoring the powerful evidence of creation all around him…. reminding us that if we open our eyes\, breathe the air and bask in the sun’s rays\, we experience the joys of life from which we are often distracted…beckoning us to live in the moment and experience these joys with him.” from an introduction by author\, publisher\, Lawrence Knorr. \nFor everyone who loves poetry\, nature\, and the gift of life\, you’ll be transformed by the miracles revealed in “The Marsh in May & 30 Poems with 29 Paintings by Ronald Rand”.
