wistful

lips parted

timid and tender

"The Gift of Friends" is full of wonder at the love of others, the gifts shared, and special events in their family. "Thresholds" eloquently tackles the difficult subject of mortality, sharing insights gained by caring for those who are facing death. Finally, in "Musings and Outward Things, " Hayes offers commentary on various cultural phenomena and celebrates the natural world of plants, animals, and landscapes.

"Observations" revels in the beauty of the spoken word and reflects on both the ordinary and extraordinary moments in all our lives.
