In this two-part collection, prolific poet Margaret Guthrie explores the mysterious connection that exists between nature and spirit. Written over many years while Guthrie lived in a small town adjacent to a national park, these poems draw deeply from the cycles, rhythms, and life stages of the natural world. They reflect not only a physical closeness to nature but also a spiritual union. The first section, titled "Communing with Nature," draws inspiration from the author's personal interaction with the wilderness. The cycles of the moon, a chance encounter with a snake, an argument between two crows-nothing is too big or too inconsequential for poetic examination. The second section is titled "Reflections of an Inner Journey," and its poems invite readers to join Guthrie as she explores the questions and wonderment that filled her spirit during some particularly powerful moments in nature. Lovers of poetry or the natural world will delight in this collection of thoughtful, evocative poems by a truly sensitive and spiritually attuned poet.
