Though I know Steve personally, still I would like to take the chance (a chance because it will be easy to charge bias)in stating that he is a fine poet, unpretentious & unaffected to the point of being admirable (hard for people with his talent not to have a little affectation). Passionate Journey is a joy; each poem is not only accessible but paradoxically subtle as well. The book's lyricism and honesty impress the reader immediately.
