Gilding a
Hermit is a collection of poems by Rocor. The book is divided into two parts:
the early life and the late world. Probably, the poet has much to tell about
his feelings in both the phases of life. Look at the temerity of the poet who
has given such a bold and yet subtle title to the collection - Gilding a
Hermit. In simple words it means painting a saint-like heart with gold-like

The kind of reflections the words and phrases make is of high importance and people with malleable heart will feel swaying with the flow.
