Derek's love of dance, travel, nature, music and people blend in a beautiful tapestry of life in this collection of poetry. Memories of his years growing up in England dance alongside energetic scenes in the streets of New York, pubs of Ireland and the dance halls of Houston. Poems about nature, spirituality and romance comingle in a melody of oneness, love and harmony. The dance poems that weave throughout the collection carry the overriding theme of connection. To live in a world as imagined and revealed by Derek's poetry is truly a reality to be sought after. Absorb yourself in the joy of the poetry, the joy of travel, backyard retreats, living, loving and, of course, the joy of dance.
