The general term granite is a deceptively simple name for a complex group of rocks that forms the most abundant material in the crust of the Earth. As a result of this complexity and abundance, granitic rocks have been at the centre of geological controversy for over 200 years.

Our Earth is a garden, to be poetically praised and appreciated, but it is also a vulnerable garden, being abused by our ignorance and greed. These poems and pictures celebrate the beauty our Garden Earth, and warn against our wanton destruction of our Mother, the Earth.

Ralph Wrightman awakes in an operating room knowing only that he is very old and decrepit. Then he learns that he is not alone, there is someone or something in his head who promises to make him young again. First, they have to escape whomever is operating on them. This becomes possible when unexpected talents emerge from the unencumbered left and right lobes of his brain. For those willing, this other-world adventure will extend Science Fiction into the psychology and physiology of consciousness and age reversal.

This book is a wild burst of poetic originality that freely acknowledges the even greater originality of poetic giants of the past. Nonetheless, the author uses wit and wisdom, and even false modesty, to poetically expound on a surprising variety of subjects that may well delight, amuse, challenge, and even inspire those who are willing to open themselves to new experiences.
