The series called Works of Various Anthologies covers ideas at different times and places in the writers life. The thoughts expressed come from experience and express emotions in an introspective way. The thoughts in these anthologies also express failures and affirmations.

The following poems and songs, meditations about Biblical Truths and Theological Reflections have been developed over a period of months and years. The religious concepts and doctrines expressed are not as absolute absolutes. They are rather attempt to express a groping and growing process of religious understanding. Nevertheless when written an effort was made to express truths perceived at that time.

Frequently the deeper dimension of love is lost with words that express physical contact. The act of making love and self-gratification has taken the place of the meaning of love. These letters attempt to express the true meaning of love. In any love relationship there cannot help but be some physical expression; be it a touch of the hand to a shoulder. There is however a far deeper meaning of love which has to do with the human spirit. The purpose of these letters is to express pure love registered in the heart and soul and mind. The words express an intangible but subjective reality that is abiding; that is what love is.
