    Following Nathaniel Hawthorne's footsteps in Rome, a disillusioned middle-aged writer seeks meaning in things of little value while mistaking the needs of the soul as trivial, and of the heart as unreliable. Inspired in part by Hawthorne's The Marble Faun, this tale is also a bit of a travelogue, as significant events often take place in sites of historical mystery. Though somewhat dark and serious, Slow Dance in a Winter Garden is a story of contemporary people who find themselves - like Nathaniel - torn between the persons they had hoped to be and those they have actually become.

    The world struggles to find peace. Two old guys discovered the answer. Fifty years after they fought in Vietnam, they worked it out. They grew up together and went to the same schools, yet they had never met. They served in the army together, were both shot down in helicopters, and lost some of their best friends in combat, but they had to wait to meet. The answer was not in combat, military training, or book learning. They were tough soldiers who were trained to kill. Ray was a helicopter pilot flying some of the army's most advanced killing machines. Bruce was an airborne ranger who deployed the army's artillery with precision. They did their jobs well. Ray and Bruce needed to find an answer to the world's struggle. They did. See if you agree.

    As a physician I frequently have to search for a diagnosis which will account for most, or hopefully all, of a patient's problems. So when I consider a question related to politics, religion or philosophy, I look for an answer that will help us to understand the known facts. When you read these poems, I don't expect that you will necessarily agree with the conclusions but hope that you will be stimulated to ask, 'What do I think?' and, maybe of more importance, 'Why do I think so?'The interpretations will be a product of age, gender, culture, race, nationality, politics, education and religious beliefs or lack of them. It is hardly surprising that our responses may differ. I frequently apply the following quotation from Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658), the Lord Protector of England, Scotland and Ireland, to my own thoughts:"I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken."- Letter to the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland (8/3/1650).

    I can imagine what you're thinking - you've picked up this book because it's bright and it caught your interest. Have you ever been in the middle of something and suddenly someone tells you it's time to get ready to go? Were you ready to go? How did you decide to go? Did you kick and scream? Did you go willingly? Did you have someone who went out of their way to help distract you? Did you help someone clean up so they could go to the next activity? If you have, and even if you haven't, open the cover and read about a class reluctant to come inside from the playground and the teacher who tells them it's ok to say goodbye to the outside. Go on a scavenger hunt as they list the many things that they see, hear, and feel as they find their way off the playground and back to the classroom. Moving on to the next activity has never been easier.

    At the heart of a nation's identity lies the moment it breaks free from its chains. For Kenya, this pivotal moment came in 1963, setting a course that would be both celebrated and challenged. Amidst this backdrop, we follow Salimo, a man whose life is intertwined with Kenya's political and professional evolution. His interactions with international allies and the Kenyan people he serves deeply influence his path. 'Hakuna Matata' isn't just a phrase; it embodies the resilience of Kenya's youth and the spirit of a nation that refuses to be subdued.

From the era of Jomo Kenyatta to the tumultuous reign of President Moi, the narrative captures the highs and lows of a country in flux. But through it all, the Kenyan spirit remains unbroken. The people, especially the youth, remain hopeful, forging ahead, shaping and being shaped by their nation's journey. Dive into a tale of resilience, politics, and the indomitable spirit of a nation and its people.

    O'Lord, I am searching for that lost pure love.The pure love You instilled in our hearts once.The pure love that's scattered into shreds now.The pure love that connects all of us to Your oneness.The pure love we forgot to give and receive.The pure love that will end all hostilities and retribution.The pure love that will end all sufferings and vengeance.The pure love that will reunite us all one day.The pure love that we call our 'Soul.'O'Lord, I need Your help to rediscover that pure love.ASI want to take my Soul to its right place, called 'home.'
