Each day is a collection of moments. Many of these moments pass with little notice, deeming the passing hours as having small consequence - routine. Yet there are those significant moments, some in memory that cause pause before being recognized; and others --- deserve fanfare. Many educators refer to these fanfare moments as “Peak Learning Experiences.” Sometimes deemed as “Aha” moments, we recognize that something special has just happened; some new insight occurred or an epiphany has struck. Those events are commonly associated with a significant emotional component. Such are the offerings in the following collection of poems. Most of the entries have some emotional attachment and something, or someone, special happened.

BLOOD AND ICE Majestically it rose from the icy waters, the gateway to the awesome wilderness of Alaska. Sitka drew all brand of adventurers, con men, criminals, and pioneers—men such as trail-tough, battle-hardened Jean LaBarge. He left the swamps of the Susquehanna behind for the rugged beauty—and deadly challenges—of this frozen frontier. But the empire-hungry Russians had already established a foothold in Sitka and they wouldn’t give it up without a fierce and treacherous struggle that stretched from San Francisco to the palaces of St. Petersburg. Now Jean faces the most dangerous fight of his life: a fight for a passionate woman and the right to claim Alaska for America.
