About the Book

John Hutchinson's poetry in Beckoned by Water: Called to Other Shores is profound, humorous, sad, and deliberately accessible. He takes the reader on an unforgettable journey where water finds entry into each poem of this collection. His attention ranges wide -- from the fish left outside in the freezing rain to the hushed quiet of a remote forest, from the faces of fear caught in a raging nighttime storm over the Chesapeake to the waves breaking over a coral reef in Mexico, from the frigate birds soaring across a blue Belizean sky to the attractive woman in her courtyard bath in Italy, and to an early morning walk as mist rises from the waters of the Mekong. John Hutchinson writes with his eyes open to the world around him and makes it unforgettable.
About the Author: John Hutchinson, teacher and principal for thirty-five years, later educational consultant for iDiscoveri in India and the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, now spends his time traveling, writing, and enjoying his ten grandchildren. Having a passion for learning-by-doing, John built his own kayak, carved bows in the native American tradition, and erected high swings and zip lines on his property. His home too reflects this belief with his paintings, carved decoys, and restored furniture. He also enjoys camping, hiking, kayaking, and of course writing poetry. John lives in Parkton, Maryland with his wife. He has three other books in print: A Taste of the Sun, Sitting in the Bloom of Us, and Adirondack Sojourn.
