“David creates a caring poignant world from small moments and things he loves. He often makes overlooked details and the transition of time significant by imbuing them with wistfulness and yearning. His poetry touches on the large, the unfathomable, and the everyday so it has a rightful place in our world.”

There is humor, music, beautifully handled metaphor, and articulated heart running through David’s poetry.  What a pleasure it is to read his poems and the leaps they represent.”
