ROOMS
by Bob Stegner

(Trish Steele)

Rooms should be published within a month or so, and I'm working with Greg Opalinski who will be doing the cover design and artwork for the novel. I'm very excited to work with him and looking forward to the design that he will create. Greg is from Ridgewood, New York and is an illustrator and artist. His work is very creative and unique, and he was one of the winners in the L. Ron Hubbard International Illustrator's of the Future contest in Los Angeles in April of 2012. In that contest he was recognized as being one of science fiction's illustrators of the future.

Watch for Rooms on Amazon. I'll let you know on this blog when it happens.

Poem

A Moment in Time


A moment in time
Spent
And consumed by
A remembrance

Time passes
And yet

I can’t see
As much
As sense you

I can’t know
As much
As feel your heart

Haunted by
A desire for

Consumed by
The need to

Memorize
Your laughter
Your words
Your soft, cascading hair

Forever frozen
Are your eyes
As they shine
As if we still were

You’re gone
I’m here
We’ve   evaporated

From a snapshot
An opportunity
A risk
Not taken

In that miniscule,
Miserly,
Mystifying,
Singularly significant
Moment in time


We’re gone
