Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - As for the proper way to approach these ruminations from the twilight, there is none. While they are in chronological order, covering March of 2022 to April of 2023, there is no need to start at the beginning. A more spirited way of beginning a new relationship (books too can become friends) might be to cast your eyes over titles in Contents (there are quite a few) and start checking out some you find intriguing. You'll know soon enough if there are things here to feed you, draw you further in. I could only smile when a friend recently informed me he finally finished Blue Plums on a Mat of Leaves, my most recent volume of poetry, reading but one or two poems a day. Like wine, poetry is best savored.A good novel is a page-turner, meant by the thrust of its story to carry the reader suspensefully forward. A good poem is a page-ponderer, station-stop instead of long-distance ride, aiming vertical instead of horizontal. Think of the poems to follow as ruminations hoping to spark in fellow spirit travelers their own ruminations, best pondered in twilight.…

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Thoughts From a Walk by Terry Lovelette is a collection of nature poetry and reflective essays inspired by the author's hiking journeys through the mountains of Vermont. The poems capture the beauty, serenity, and spirituality the author experiences while walking various trails, including the famed Long Trail that traverses the spine of the Green Mountains.The collection begins with poems that describe the author's sensory impressions of the forests, lakes, and rocky ridges he explores. Descriptive verses about the sunrise over Lake Unbagog and the springtime flowers carpeting a trail create vivid images for the reader. Other poems delve into the introspective thoughts and spiritual musings the solitary walks evoke in the author. Themes of finding inner peace, letting go of anxieties, and opening one's heart to the grace of nature run throughout.The author reflects on feeling insignificant yet connected to the vastness of creation while hiking. A sense of this own smallness in the face of mountains that have stood for eons yet remain ever-changing comes across in awestruck lines. The musicality of birdsong, the tranquility of a hidden waterfall, and the companionship of forest creatures encountered on the trail all inspire verse. Brief essays providing historical and geographical context alternate with the poems. The author shares interesting facts about the Green Mountains' geological formation and influence from glaciers and volcanoes. He also expresses gratitude to the Green Mountain Club for building and maintaining Vermont's hiking trails.Overall, Thoughts From a Walk gifts readers with a sublime walk in the woods without leaving home. The poems and essays capture the restorative and spiritual powers of nature. Readers step into contemplative mindset, appreciating the insights and graces that time spent walking in the mountains can bring.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - One man's quiet defiance lit a path from a Jim Crow railcar to the pinnacle of sport and the front lines of American justice.On a crisp September morning in 1948, Norvel Lee-Howard University student, U.S. Olympic athlete, and son of the Blue Ridge Mountains-took a seat he was told he could not have. His arrest on a segregated Virginia train set in motion a courtroom battle that would reach the state's highest court and etch his name into civil rights history. From a childhood shaped by a hardscrabble, close-knit Black community and the iron grip of Jim Crow, Norvel forged himself in the crucibles of wartime service with the Tuskegee-trained Air Corps, the discipline of the boxing ring, and the halls of higher learning where his stutter met his will. He rose from limited classrooms to national AAU heavyweight champion, from a segregated unit in the South Pacific to the 1952 Helsinki Olympic Games, where his resolve turned into an American milestone.Told with the texture of lived experience and the cadence of a life hard-earned, Norvel's journey unfolds across decades of change: his marriage to Leslie Jackson and their steadfast partnership, his Howard University degrees and advanced scholarship, and a calling to teach, mentor, and lead that shaped generations in Washington, D.C. As a senior officer in the U.S. Air Force Reserves and a pillar in his community, he transformed private integrity into public impact-proving that courage is not a single act but a lifetime of choosing to stand. Meticulously researched and deeply human, Norvel: An American Hero is a sweeping true story of perseverance, principle, and the everyday bravery that bends history toward justice.For readers who love the moral force and narrative drive of Taylor Branch, Isabel Wilkerson, and David Maraniss. …
