Gatekeepers

"In Gatekeepers, Daniel Surface addresses the hidden and natural world as well as the inner and outer lives we live: life in the light and life in shadows. In these poems Surface goes right to the heart of the matter. As he says in the poem Prayer: To be as still as the stone in the stream / Great as the kingdom of the pine cone, / Present as the aspen. / To live the wonder of me / In the wonder." Earl LeClaire, poet, author, raconteur, beloved elder.
