Volume 2, containing poems from 1973, 1974, and 1975, is the second in a series of poetry books Mark Decker is publishing about the evolution of the love story that he and Molly share. There is some overlap with volume 1 in chronology. ?I was prolific in 1973 and 1974,? said Mark. 'this volume contains some of the poems I like from that chapter of our story.? Mark is already at work organizing and editing his next collection for volume 3, which will comprise additional poems from 1975 and include 1976. Mark has been writing for the past fifty years and is organizing, editing, and publishing his poetry, working his way from historical work toward the present. He continues to write. He and Molly live in Great Falls, Virginia. They have three children and seven grandchildren.
