Balancing Act: Poems

Tough and tender poems by two mature men who have very good eyes and write of the natural world with great compassion and intelligence... Longoni and Taiz have gathered here a poetic conversation that looks with frankness and feeling at the aging body, the gift of memory, the birds that find their way into the trouble of human neighborhoods, and the long gaze given to those fortunate enough to live into "that dizzying acceleration of age."
