The ways we touch

Description

The poems in The Ways We Touch, Miller Williams's twelfth volume of poetry, range from reminiscences of old love to meditations on the relationship between God and human beings to reflections on English poetry and children's stories. Throughout, Williams's poems use small scenes from daily life, drawing from them ruminations about life itself. They may be nostalgic or challenging, humorous or full of moral fortitude; always Williams speaks with the kind of insight that rises from wisdom and experience.
