Preface Throughout my Creative Writing and Speaking journey, i have always had a special place in my psyche for messages. When it comes to Poetry, it, Messages along with Love are the predominant topics of my expressions. I have always felt that understanding things was essential to the lowering of my "Angst Index". This collection of work found in The Vine Keeper is such a work. My intent is that it will assist the reader in their own journey. It is not that i proclaim to provide the answers another may be seeking, but perhaps you will find the questions that help you recognize that you already possess all that you need within you. I too am a Seeker, and i have been since the formative years of my thinking and the acknowledgment of the structure of this world with it's Rite and Rote and various other Dogmas and Indoctrination that does not necessarily provide me any particular insight to the questions we all ask at one time or another.
