The poems of Slade Nakoff beckon us to reach out, to seek, and to find, in this seemingly futile world of time. Come read the verses and search for yourself. You might find subjects of life and meaning here are pondered and spread from one mind to another, not in finality, but in simple meditations which bring forth true hope.
“Nakoff’s rich lines here unveil latent and unexpected depths
and mysteries of the natural creation in all its immanent graces.
Great poetry evokes a plethora of emotions, and these pieces do not
disappoint, prompting wonder, humor, melancholy, hope, and much
more. To boot, there is subtle, understated, but profound
theological insight in Nakoff’s work which will leave readers
hungry for more of his inklings of the new creation dawning.”
—Paul Blowers, Milligan University
