Through Bill Lemmer's eyes and ears in the chorusing of others to shape this poetry, the writing speaks simply and sincerely with a calm reassuring power, vibrant color and rhythm, uplifting scenery, dialogue, and humor, with the intense cerebral quality of reverential release from the strain of unwanted mental noise in our daily routines.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author was born and bred in the Corn Belt of America.
