This highly original collection of 47 lyrical and narrative poems is written around two themes - unknowingness and transcendence. It begins with the short poem "Prelude," which describes a universe where all is in motion and of humans "knowing neither where we journey/ nor why/ but looking to the arc of the sun/ and grateful for its rising."

Clutching my holdall, I slipped into the chantry of an early fifteenth-century chapel.

Despite the mastery being lost, there is a certain charm in the wooden structure, which sparks the imagination and invokes a sense of playfulness. The "rollicking chuckwagon imagination" suggests a lively and vivid mental landscape associated with this place.Wheel House More of a shed, really. This wheel house, this army of spokes across each wall. All shapesand sizes. A few of the latest offerings foreverearthbound and on neglected half-lean.The machinery long gone, so that only theskeleton remains. That original vison.The craftsmanship. With mastery over nothing, including the Self, there is a simple wooden charmsnaking through the mustiness, coiling ever-tighteraround your rollicking chuckwagon imagination.And the deafening quiet, never forget that! Naked toesover dirt floors, playful drag marks of theeternal straggler.

The book title, Wind in the Elephant Tree, traces to a time when, at age 20, I rough-necked my way through wilderness deserts of Mexico with several friends. I came to realize that although I was strong, reasonably good-looking and becoming well educated, I could perish in the desert and no one would care except ants, vultures and maybe my younger sister. The realization that neither I, nor anyone else, is the center of the universe has never faded. Review by LB Sedlacek"Wind in the Elephant Tree" could be seen somewhat as a poem novel what with its combination of poetry, prose and photos all combined into a literary adventure of sorts of the author. The book weaves a captivating narrative that combines elements of coming-of-age and experiences and revelations to transport the reader into de Berge's world. The author creates a unique consciousness to render thought provoking verses, stories and text. His own encounter with an elephant tree sets the spark for his discoveries and serves as the inspiration behind the book. The author states "The book title, Wind in the Elephant Tree, traces a time when, at age 20, I rough-necked my way through wilderness deserts of Mexico with several friends. I came to realize that although I was strong, reasonably good-looking and becoming well educated, I could perish in the desert and no one would care except ants, vultures and maybe my younger sister. The realization that neither I, nor anyone else, is the center of the universe has never faded."He compares this realization to the elephant tree. The tree, which is a real type of tree, is seen quite often in the desert, it often appears as a staple in movies and tv shows set in the same region, and it is ultimately a tough but also beautiful survivor. The book is, according to the author, "a journey to find the meaning of love in my life."One of the aspects of the book that really stands out is the author's capabilities to build his world within the pages using mostly words along with some visuals to bring his vision to life. He uses intricate details and rich writing skills to achieve this.From the poem "IN MUTED WAYS" "Petite yellow flower petalsnestled beside a blue sage bushcaught my eye some 50 years agoand still draw me among photomemories of our early years.Its species name is unknown to meunless cherubic buttercup will do."It's easy to become immersed in this transformation from curious to compassionate. There is so much depth and sensitivity shown in each well thought out line. All of which continues with the placement of each piece within each chapter of the book."Wind in the Elephant Tree" is a gorgeously put together piece. It blends reality into a heartfelt tale that leaves a lasting as well as encouraging impression.
