Additional information
by Reuben V. Greene (Author)
Reuben V. Greene III's writings come from explorations into the world of nature. Away from things fashioned by the hands of men. A stream, a towering tree in birdsong or a cloud drifting often speak beyond words...when one is quiet enough to hear. Quiet enough to feel the energy of these subtle healers. Since childhood, he has followed these voices.
With degrees in International Relations and History, he has traveled worldwide, continually in awe. Humbled by even the quietest and smallest of nature's vocabulary.
These are great conversations...even those without vocal response. Conversations that continually exhilarate, render-ing one more clear-eyed and appreciative regarding earth's unending gifts. And the need to protect them.
In so doing, we ensure that we protect our own precious planet, but perhaps worlds beyond and vaster than our own imaginations.
These poems reflect a life well-lived along the shores of the Pacific Ocean in Northwest Washington and Whidbey Island. Cormorants, red-shouldered hawks, dogs, cats, and wise old people bring their images to the verses of Reuben V. Greene III.
