'Life can become a race against time if you allow it. Slow down occasionally, and you are apt to find that time pauses too. Some of my most indelible memories have been formed in such moments and a few are recollected in this slim volume. I hope they spark resonance and enjoyment.
'This is the fifth volume of my poems published by Ginninderra Press, and I am grateful to Stephen and Brenda Matthews for their continued support. Stephen was awarded the Order of Australia in 2021 for his services to publishing, a well-deserved honour, for he has given great opportunities to many Australian poets over the past twenty-five years. I count myself fortunate to have been one of them.' (Publication summary)
