An Economy of Words
The Collected Poems of Bob Myers

From the Author's Preface: “I am not a poet. I make that clear in the first entry. I am by profession a teacher who loves to read and teach poetry and finds great pleasure in writing poetry to please myself and maybe my family and friends. In this collection you will read about my faith and some principles I embrace, about family, friends and people encountered, about ordinary things and ordinary events that pepper all our lives.”
