halfway to blossoming

During our seemingly endless exploration of reality we sometimes stumble upon something beautiful. A gift so rare and so stunning that it illuminates the entire path ahead of us. In his first English poetry collection, Tom Weber offers his readers one such present. Poems emerging from a brief gap in existence, words shimmering in the mild light of creation. All the while a mysterious hibiscus flower slowly blossoms in the shade of a secret liaison. Discover this short, but powerful poetry collection in all its mesmerising colours.
