Painting Words by John Paul White is a compilation of poems inspired by the many moments the author has reflected on throughout the past few years prior to and into his retirement. Many of the poems herein were written on our family chat room, in between posted pictures and small talk, sometimes meaningful, sometimes trivial. With his whimsical, heartfelt, and sporadic prose, John bridges the physical distances that separate our family-letting us feel his warmth and presence in each verse.
