This collection of Gregg's poetry should be listened to by anyone who is attempting to make sense of existence. Contained in this CD, Gregg's first, you will find thoughtful, probing, revealing, and sometimes dark glimpses of one's self.
In remarkably clear and precise words, Gregg shows us who we are, why we are here, and where we are going. Dealing with nature, time, friendship and love, Gregg creates a world of experiences from our daily lives using words to paint vivid pictures in our minds; hence the title of his CD, Painted Poetry. This talent for painting "word pictures" can also be seen in his talent for photographing nature.
One can sense Gregg's close ties to nature by listening to his poems in this collection. Using nature as his guide, Gregg is able to express universal thoughts in unique ways. Perhaps many times you will find yourself pausing as I was, nodding your head, and saying "Aha, I can relate to that!
I encourage all of you to explore your inner thoughts and feelings as introspectively as Gregg. You will find looking at the past will shape your future. As Gregg has said many times, "life is to be lived, not to merely exist." I'm confident you'll discover insights in each of these poems, but a word of warning, these poems can be addictive once started. Savor this collection as you would a fine wine; ponder its beauty, enjoy the aroma of the words, breathe in the experience, taste the meaning and have another glass. Allow the music and Gregg's voice to be your tour guide as only he can.
I'm reminded of how Gregg sums up his work: "Each poem is a moment in time, use it to create your reality. The reality of your world, only you can create, only you can construct, only you can dream, for dreams make the best form of reality."
Experience this journey as much I did. --Dan Holloway, MD, Las Vegas, NV
