Things Shared Ronald W Higgins

It's the things shared among us, all of our connections, our arms, like branches, stretched out, curling around one another in embrace, and our roots so strong and deep, that give life beauty and purpose. This poetry collection is an artistic jewel, worthy to be savored and enjoyed by the reader and prized by society, as it grants us a uniquely intimate glimpse into the inner workings, the very thoughts and feelings, of a black man coming of age and reaching maturity in 20th and 21st century America-living life, experiencing ups and downs, immense pleasure and pain, and celebrating cherished bonds with others in love, intimacy and family. In sharing this selection of poems, Ronald W. Higgins invites us to journey behind the scenes of his life as he falls in love, and learns to let go, celebrates life and finds purpose in connecting with others in the familial warmth of the African-American genealogical societies across the country that he has helped establish and lead.
