Dave Ellis writes about impressions from his travels in Europe 2013-2016. The collection stretches over the continent with a mix of close everyday moments to the wider sweeps of history in England and Italy over the centuries. With a main focus around the love of life, of living, of the smaller pleasures in life, and of beauty. The poems are expressions of special emotional and visual moments, and written in a short, free form. Some poems are also small portraits of special people and new friends encountered during his travels. This is the first published book and poetry collection by Dave Ellis.
