"A Window in at a Moment in Time" is a collection of poems written almost thirty years ago when Francois was a teenager. These poems were influenced by Francois' experiences as a teenager including his arising awareness of the need for conservation and the damage we as humanity were causing even then.
Closer to home, some poems reflect his opinions which were more socially influenced by subjects that were discussed by teenagers at the time and which perhaps always remain in the discussions of teenagers no matter the period.
The collection of poetry also represents some of Francois' first work as an author. At the time he did not have a computer or the internet and would look for addresses of publishers in literary magazines in local bookstores to which he could submit his work for publication at the time.
