Upstate Trilogy: A Celebration of Creation, Creativity, and the Examined Life from the Other New York

The poems in Upstate Trilogy attempt to examine God's creation through the explorations of nature, human creativity, and human experience--the world experienced through body, soul, and spirit. In particular this book of poems takes its context in the place called Upstate--the other New York from Lake Erie in the west to the Hudson River in the east. T. P. Bird uses his own thirty-five years of living in Upstate as the content of this examination--particularly in the years 1988-2009--drawn from his field notes taken while hiking the upstate countryside; his receiving early twentieth-century amateur photographs, and the stories they might tell us; and observations from his personal journal. Bird sees this exploration as a celebration--a celebration of time, place, wonder, and God's marvelous blessings.
