Echoes from the Depths of Hale
Echoes from the Depths of Hale is a collection of scribal introspections and declarations which occurred from my early high school days through my 80 years on this Earth. They include some poems, speeches, simple “musings”, songs, even some reflections following the Home Going of my Wife of Fifty years! Each expression still “echoes” from deep within me as they breach the ears of others. May they challenge and enlighten the eyes and ears of your heart and mind as they reverberate within you!
