by J. P. White (Author)

Rough Sea is a collection of poems that do not shy away from life's complexity. J.P. White's poems vividly portray the natural world as well as human society, both worlds full of cruelty and beauty. The poems show an openness to some of the bitter truths a mature person must realize, as well as an unflagging openness to amazement and delight. This is the work of a mature, highly skilled poet.
