Synopsis:

From his Where Purple Shadows Fall one is quick to
recognize that Cashwell's verse is a vivid testimony to
various aspects of his biographical itinerary. For it is
within  his prose poems that he traces most eloquently
an outline of his life's journey.

Then comes the shocking realization that there is
measured, rhythmic, free verse alongside Haiku all
joined under one cover-- the cover of a new Bard
rising in Northeastern North Carolina. Perhaps the
last of the Great Epic Poem Writers.

Praise for Where Purple Shadows
Fall
:

“A cutting edge presentation of the finest poetic
prose of the 21st Century. No one goes as far in
creative diversity and experimentation.”__
Michele Z. Banda, author and member of the
Board of Editors, Literary Masters, Inc.

“From his eulogy of Native American Indians
(
Above the Cliffs) to his love of country
(
America) and the quiet moments of spirituality
in-between (
Mother of God) there is an earned
respect of life and the will to be free in each
writing.”__ Alan V. Galloway   

"A truly unusual writing from the author of
Toishan. Moving easily from epic poetry to
poetic prose with grace and style, Cashwell
creates moments for pause and reflection on
every page. I enjoyed every poem,with a
special delight coming from
The Letter." ****
__Su Chang-Wu

"A relaxing work that affords many moments
of pleasure and reflection. It cannot be read like
just another book, rather with the time and
patience required of a fine wine in order to savor
the delicate rhythms and carefully crafted
rhyme" __ Jean Ann Morgan

Where Purple Shadows Fall is the collection
we have been waiting for. We expect you to
return to again and again. For while the author
has many in his library of works to choose from,
the forty poems offered here are among his
favorites."***__ The Editors at Literary
Masters, Inc.  
          
“Till The Cosmos Runs Dry”

When I was a child
I dreamed
I could fly
Had no wings
No machines in the sky
I’d just sail on my imagination
Till the Cosmos runs dry.

When I was fourteen
I dreamed
Of nothing I’d never try
Invincible at everything
My days just fast-danced me by
And I’d sail on my imagination
Till the Cosmos runs dry.

When I was a father
I dreamed
My children could fly
On the wings of their mother
High upon the horizon, they passed me by
Then I’d sail on my imagination
Till the Cosmos runs dry.

When I was an old man
I learned how to cry
Had no more dreams
No wings in the sky
So, I sailed on my imagination
Till the Cosmos ran dry.
