Affirmation, kindness, love, and self awareness are the touchstones of Gary Brinderson’s poetry. In a deceptively simple, Zen-like style, Sitting on a Rock offers wise counsel, teaching us—just as he taught his students—that all of life's answers can be found within. We only need to go and sit on a rock, and listen to our hearts.

My poetry is about catching a glimpse of a doorway to another world, there is a sense of a spiritual yearning to know that place and to connect with it. It lies beneath or throughout our world and pulling it into concrete form is not an easy task but it is a gift to me when it happens. It creates something I love. I touch this world in landscape and in nature and sometimes in a particular place like in the Rock of Dunamase. If you have travelled in Ireland, you will know some of these landscapes and their temperaments well.

Indeed, whenever we look and listen to the vastness of our world Nature’s beauty is always there for us..
