Description

On a Ruffling Day: Poems, Photos, Folk Art and Nature by Kenneth Gomez

On a Ruffling Day is a collection of poems and photography for those who indulge in the tranquil beauty of nature as well as the darker curiosities of the supernatural and natural phenomena. Humor, folk art, Indian sculptures, shipwrecks, folklore, and many other interesting offerings can be experienced at the turn of every page.

Author and photographer Ken Gomez has lived half his life in northwest Michigan and the other half in coastal Maine. He sees shared similarities in their landscapes, shorelines, vast water views, and nautical histories. The plainspoken poems and unique photographs capture and combine these two inspirational places.

The folk art contributions were crafted by Gomez and his relative, the late Theodore Anderson. Some of the photos feature Indian village sculptures built by a talented unknown artist in a roadside field in rural Maine. Collectors and nature lovers will appreciate the beauty and history within.
