Whether you are a high school athlete, a parent, or just enjoy watching
sports, you know that high school sports are packed full of passion and
unbridled hope that no other level of play seems to possess. Watching these
spirited individuals is not only entertaining but also creates a sense of
nostalgia mixed with renewed hope for the future.

The author of Moments at Anchor Bay High is a huge fan of high school
sports. Over the years, he has dug deeper within both the game and himself
to seek a spiritual nature to these events. He regularly draws from the
passion of a particularly well played game or a play off match to find his
inspiration for his writing. These are often written, without sleep to
interrupt the flow of the raw feelings, over the course of several days.

I find the process of the author's writing of this collection of works
extremely interesting. He almost seems to siphon excess energy off the games
and then infuses this passion into his writing. The resulting poems and
letters are filled with spiritual metaphor that often has double or triple
meanings that go far beyond the surface of the original sporting activity.
