Become the Pebble: A Collection of Eclectic Poems (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781961351165)

"Become the Pebble" is an eclectic collection of poems, written over time, comparable to the lengthy process of how a pebble is formed through decades of being shaped by the elements.

This book reflects our common experiences...what we have observed and how we have participated. The title also has specific meaning. It expresses the courage to take the leap, as a pebble is tossed into the water.

Some of these poems may inspire you to be willing to get wet, face the unknown, and do whatever it takes to become the person you were created to be. Some poems may even lead you to identify and accomplish your purpose.

Diving into the deep, we discover a corresponding ripple for each degree we descend. We may never know the far-reaching effects of our actions and our words, akin to ripples created by a pebble in water.
