Paul Tait's new book of verse "Sand 'n Ashes" is a multi-level work of varied influences. At ninety five poems, it is his most adventurous to date! Paul explores the relevance (and the constraints) of time, love, death, dreams, and the existential in-between. Special sections devoted to "Fragments" contain short one verse poems that need not add more to paint the picture Mr, Tait endeavored to convey. "Sand 'n Ashes" should please fans of his earlier works and attract new readers.
