The Sleepy Time Waltz and Other Poems For Awakening, by William H. Williams, is a collection of poems ranging from whimsical to introspective. They were written over a period of more than twenty years, during which the author was seeking to find ways to express flashes of insight, periods of emotional distress, or understand an abstract metaphysical concept. The poems are reflections of a growing self-awareness and awakening to a new sense of reality. This small volume of poems concludes with a fable depicting emotional interactions within an individual which can give rise to the ability to encounter life without being moved to violence and hatred. Immature and acquired emotions prompt reactive responses to life leading to suffering. This short fable illustrates the growth of mature and awakened emotions that are the result of persistent spiritual work on oneself.
