Juan Olivarez Poems
Happiness is being home again,
Happiness is walking in the rain.
Happiness is waking with no pain.

...
Juan Olivarez Quotes

It doesn't matter that the water is shallow you can't swim.
If the fire is blazing don't add gasoline.

Juan is a poet of intense abilities, he seems to see so much in life's happenings, in the world's movement, and then best of all he so articulately and wonderfully translates it all to us through his poetic vision. And we therefore are blessed to receive the fruits of his gift for writing. Read as much of his poetry as you can, you will be glad you did!
