Melting Glaciers is a collection of contemporary and free-spirited lyric poetry that expands our awareness and encourages us to feel one with both nature and mankind. Author Richard Edgar Zwez's verses inspire a deep longing for the wonders of the natural world, as well as respect for the complexity of life. The seemingly endless existence of a massive glacier is the backdrop for verses that reveal the progression of time. Just as every glacier is slowly melting, each drop of water that falls represents another moment that has passed, never to be experienced again. From the poignant words of "Decline" to the rising heat of "Critical," Zwez offers a uniquely creative and introspective examination of life's most touching moments and demanding challenges.
