Still here, still now

"Robert Pack is one of America's most eminent nature poets; Still Here, Still Now is his nineteenth volume of verse. The first section of the book contains traditional lyrics that celebrate family ties and seek consolations for the passing of personal and evolutionary time. The poems in this group address a named or unnamed auditor in a voice of intimate engagement. Featuring the most narrative selections in the book, the second section consists of fable-like stories, rich with innuendo and implication."--Jacket.
