As I've said in my previous two books, I find it almost impossible to just sit down and write a poem or a song - and I greatly admire those who have this talent. My poems seem to grow organically and just appear when they are ready and I am receptive. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI first started to write poetry while in college, in addition to obtaining graduate degrees in Physics and Computer Science. Attending school in the late 60's, I naturally became a self-taught folk singer - a hobby that I pursue avidly to this day. My career involved designing radar and communications systems for air-traffic control - combining my scientific bent with my life-long fascination with aviation. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 156\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.42 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 27, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47883725766877,"sku":"9781968970451","price":13.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/jgFiCmfgb-9781968970451.webp?v=1778013414","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/kintsugi-paperback-2","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
