"At the end of each day We should be One step closer To what we should be" The pages are unnumbered and there are no titles. The pages like shadows of rippling water in a beautiful pond or dry desert sands blown across a vast escape are classically arranged and present poetic musings of a deep heartfelt nature. The third poem is a profound start to a book of pure poetic longing. Javan expresses his inner turmoil over life's paradox. He expresses his need to seek balance between two extremes. "For while some people have A shoulder to cry on It is the destiny of others That they must cry alone" A few poems are a prayer and others resemble a poet growing through changing life circumstances. The wisdom from a life well lived all while fighting the human condition and realizing the need for human connection. Javan is a sensitive soul touched by beauty and he expresses his thoughts in poems that read like beautiful gifts from the heart. Now and then you meet someone amazing who sends you a poetry book of great meaning. "Something to Someone" is a beautiful gift where your soul can grow. Thank you! ~The Rebecca Review

These books have helped me through every difficult situation I have encountered. I am amazed that I can re-read them over and over and still be moved by the emotion and sincerity in the words. This is the best set of books I have ever owned.

This is one of the most beautiful books I have ever read. I came across it during a particularly unhappy time in my life, and while it didn't come close to fixing things, it moved me to tears and still does. Read it, and share it with anyone you love.
The entire Javan collection exposes the emotions that go straight to the heart and soul of each of us. They express love, loss, growth, and spiritaulity that brings tears to the eyes and encouragemnt to the soul. Javan needs to write more of these inspiring books. These words are from his college Biology Lab partner at Brevard College 1966. Having known Javan makes the words even more meaningful.
Inspring, soulful, beautiful book

It's like a best friend I pull out to remind myself of what matters most when I'm going through a rough time. That sounds sappy, but it really is a great book.
