Spirit Bridge: Selected Poetry

Mr. Di Giorgio is a joyous poet, who sings with the bards of the earth. Human senses and emotions are woven into cascades of melody. These are very personal works, made of worlds the poet has experienced through his acute senses, and his very fluid mind. He is reflective, reaching into the past, as well as the future. Reading these works, reminds me to look around at the everyday, to find more than I know.
