One of the Loaves Was Yours

One of the Loaves Was Yours almost always finds a way to make its meanings as clear as possible. But that is only one element in its success. These poems also communicate with a healthy dash of images, usually the lifeblood of poetry that pleases. It is not an easy thing to accomplish, but the author has done it. This book also offers a majority of poems that both scan and rhyme, an added handicap for a poet, but one that he seems to delight in. Besides, as Robert Frost once said, writing poetry without rhyme "is like playing tennis without a net."
