CONTENTS

Being and Becoming.

All Things Great and Small.

Give Me Hills to Climb.

None Goes His Way Alone.

I dream a World.

While my prayer is that truth or beauty be sharpened for some as these tendrils tough, I claim only sincerity of intent; and speak primarily to those who move with the music they hear, as they turn deaf ears to the dull ones who still cry, "Conform! - Conform!."
