"""Michael Delp must be proclaimed the King of moving water. I have long been a fan of both his poetry and prose."" -Jim Harrison ""I don't know any writer working today who has a dee[er appreciation of rivers, or a more profound appreciation of their significance than Michael Delp"" -Jerry Dennis ""In the first of David's Psalms, the righteous man is likened to 'a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season.' Michael Delp is such a man and these poems are the fruit of his lifelong, steadfast, deeply rooted devotion to the holy waters that nourish his wild heart."" -Nick Bozanic, Poet Laureate at the ""Reeling Waters Lodge"""
