Suffused with delight in the splendor of high culture, the divine, and the most sublime of human virtues, these finely crafted poems regale us with rich tapestries of history and the natural world. As beautiful artifacts of speech, they’re each marked by a delightful radiance and a beauty of form.

Although most are nourished by Western literary traditions (ranging from Graeco-Roman antiquity through the Middle Ages and on to our own time), others have been crafted in accordance with the very best Near Eastern, classical Chinese, and even Sanskrit models.

Many are grand, regal, and erudite; others quieter, yet compelling in their tenderness and delicacy. All, however, cry out to be read aloud, to be heard, and to be treasured again and again.

“Ancient splendors reveal themselves in these poems.”                                                        Thomas Molnar

“Here is poetry for learned readers, rich in history,
fresh in insight.”
Richard Eberhart

“Moser is a poet of astounding depth and bright clarity.”
Howard Fickett
