Testing The Water (A Collection of Poems by Larry Cruikshank)

Testing The Water is a collection of easy-to-read, passionate poems written by American poet Larry Cruikshank. The poems, many of which are love poems, are all thought provoking slices of life written and collected over 30 years of the author's life. They deal with honest relationships he had over this time period as both a single and married man and detail the joy and heartache that comes with being a passionate lover. It is a book for all lovers of passion itself. Filled with raw emotion in a free verse style, the poems are simple word paintings about nature, philosophy, relations, sex, romance and aging. There are also a number of Cruikshank's own photographs in the book.
