The poet witnessed this love during his worldwide seeking. His seeking took him as a professor to eight countries over four continents. And when that was not enough, he scanned the world in a backpacking mode. The search for ecstasy was itself ecstatic, and the Poems of Longing are a gift that came out of this search.
