Publisher's Synopsis
This is a collection about the Japanese principle of Shinrin-Yoku, which translates roughly into "forest bathing." The concept is that by going into the forest alone, without technological devices, one can restore themselves mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. A very dear friend gave me a book on Haiku because I was interested in the style. I was lucky enough to move to an area profuse with natural and wild settings after the beginning of the book, as park spaces were unable to give me the isolation and disconnection I required to restore my soul. This is my journey to finding and falling in love with me. Award Winning poet, Rebecca "Loves Assassin" Cuevas De Caissie, has work published in multiple anthologies throughout the world and three personal collections: the romantic Lamentations of the Caves, and Echoes of the Caves (featuring a form of poetry created by Rebecca called Simpatia), and duality of Fire and Ice, two collections: Darkness, a dark romance, and the long-awaited An Arcadian Love's Song, an epic poem about raw heartbreak and human condition of failed love. Rebecca currently serves as the NB Chair and Youth Director for the Canadian Federation of Poets, editor for the Poetry of Youth Anthology, was The Canadian Federation of Poet's Poet of the Month in August 2008, World Famous Poet Societies most Promising New Poet 2001, Most Prolific New Poet 2002, and Most Original Poet 2003 from Poetry.com, and Poet Laureate for the Blue Cottages in Nova Scotia.
