Language of a Mountain: Words in the wind is a poetry anthology about experiences in the outdoors and the joys, lessons and perspectives that entwine the experiences of being outdoors."Oh, such a scentBlankets of elderly leavesWet and damp, so flatBeneathGusts of a morning's breathCarried away with the breezeOff afar, into the treesSilent Aspens drip their scentA blend of life's sensesDangling leaves that spinSilently flap and glistenTeaching you how to listen"This anthology presents a new approach to free verse poetry. These poems encompass the experiences of hunting elk and deer, fishing for trout, connecting on a deeper level with our senses, the rewards of climbing mountains and personal revelations learned throughout those experiences. Also included throughout the book are images of wildlife and quotes about nature from respected individuals in the scientific community such as Rachel Carson."Electric current of lifeThe waves, deep underneathPulsing your skin in rhythmTo folk songs not yet writtenHolding the salted droplets backReflections in glass, I peer for your eyesYour moment is yours to hideA smile in the eyesHiddenUnder glaring lenses"Language of a Mountain marks Puckett's second publication, his first being "Strait Laced Psycho: Voices from the void," published in 2019. AJ Puckett is an American author from Butte, Montana.
