The Blind Painter

The heart of a poet is one seated firmly in an appreciation for every detail of waking life—of the senses, emotions, and relationships that make each day uniquely special. For some who are blessed with this gift of observation and expression, the work may take on yet deeper importance, for what better way to acknowledge the splendor of creation than by writing about the One who made it possible? In this brief but impactful collection of poetry and prose, author Joseph Crain shares his take on nature, fatherhood, love, and his relationship with God. Alternating between careful rhymed verse and longer vignettes, each focused on a specific scene or feeling, this book will lead readers on a journey through the author’s deepest and most cherished memories, insights, experiences, and wisdom.
