Scattered Reflections: Life Mirrored through Rhyme, Verse and Form

by Jim Ross

A gem of a chapbook, Scattered Reflections is an eclectic romp through the chockablock playroom of its ever-accumulating, culturally urbane author. At once playful, regional, and accessible as it explores campfires with working cowhands, manning avant-garde sailing craft in regattas on dangerous seas, being robbed while commuting in a complex city, Scattered Reflections reaches the soul and touches the heart as it explores a love-hate relationship with poetry, the coming-of-age of a child, and the dichotomy of youth and age alongside its virtuoso ability to unite and endear generations.

[Ginny Ross · Rating 5 out of 5]

I found Scattered Reflections playful, full of joy and beauty, each poem its own place in life. I think I'll read A Plea to a Wine Cork next.

[Terry Bamberger · Rating 5 out of 5]

Truly a sweet book of poetry, the imagery of which is truthful and vivid, and flows easily from one form to another. I feel as if I've experienced a lifetime through this little book. Highly recommend it!
