Poet's Heart by Kate Wolf

Thanks:
- to all the poets and friends whose words and thoughts appear in these songs - especially Eric Bogle, Utah Phillips, Luke Breit, Judy Mayhan, Doug Boyd and the late Stan Rogers
- to Bill & Daniel for not letting go of the vision and for all the hours they spent working for love
- to Martin, Alan, Mike, Beth, Kim, Nina, Max and all the musicians who made this music come alive
- to Victor and Diane whose generosity and good humor made the photo sessions fun
- to Hannah who is so open with her heart and her life
- to Terry for sharing the dream and mastering the learn-as-you-go method of single parenthood while I was away

We live in a world torn between wanting to listen to the sound of a flower growing and wanting to ignore the sound of the sky falling. By sometimes being sensitive enough to the first process we acquire the energy necessary to prevent the second.
