Publisher's Synopsis
To the Reader Filling the frame this summer day
With demure white flowers on display
This tree readies to welcome summer
Perhaps as it did last year
But I do not remember
Reflection: When our world becomes small, we see things that we did not notice at all. (#22: Tree with White Flowers)
My signature style is to pair each poem with the photo that inspired it, and to create a reflection to accompany each pair. To show the changes in scenery as one season flowed into another, the poems are arranged by the date each picture was taken. You may notice few poems written for summer and fall. During those months, I visited parks where I could socially distance, walk along trails, and enjoy expanded views. The poems from these visits are not included in this book.
And so, welcome to my nature escape, where I hope you will have a fun, feel-good time. For this book is intended for the stressed out, the young at heart, and those who love nature. Whether you are eight or ninety-eight, please enjoy and comment. I would love to know what you think. Dr. E
