  In this our imagined future we watch them sound the trees hoping for deadwood, knowing the living are always harder to cut.
  – Show Us What it is to Love a Forest with Song
  A deep-dive into the human relationship with trees and how trees have shaped folklore and literature. Sparked by a campaign to save the ancient forest of Penrhos, an SSSI on Ynys Môn, from being turned into a holiday camp, Ness explores Welsh folklore of trees and her own love for and engagement with the trees and other wild aspects of her home, as well as more common garden flowers, which should be treated with respect (Daffodils are Dangerous). Ness has an ongoing conversation with her native language and some poems are presented bilingually: there is a link to be made between the disregarding of native language and the disregarding of native habitat. Far more than a book of nature poems there is a simmering frustration at the casual way we despoil our environment without any concern for what is destroyed or the ongoing impact of that destruction.

  Move from a transactional experience with God to a transformational friendship with Him through prayer. How can time with God be a source of peace in a loud and distracting world? In Beholding, spiritual director and poet Strahan Coleman invites readers to discover the joy of being with God, not just working for Him. As they inhabit the art of resting in God’s presence, prayer becomes not only a place of seeking, but becoming. Beholding calls Christians to understand how:  Prayer is so much more than spoken conversation between us and God; it’s a way of existing together. Beholding God in prayer is profoundly connected to beholding and dignifying others.Embracing prayer practices from different Christian traditions digs a deep well of peace in the soul.Our everyday ordinary lives can become the meeting place for God through silence, solitude, community, creation, and hospitality.

  Imagine when the zodiac signs have all gathered together, maybe sharing some drinks and having a long chat—in poetry.  Will they talk about who is more fun? Will they point fingers at who is being dramatic? Or would they talk about the people who represent them and if these people were representing their signs very well? Will these signs be friends? Will Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius throw fire at other signs? Will Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces douse everyone else with water? Will the earth (Capricorn, Taurus, and Virgo) and air (Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius) signs meet? There would surely be intriguing topics and heightened emotions involved in this party. If you want to eavesdrop, get a copy of Astrology Poetry 101: Cypher.

  Knock-knock! Who’s there? 
  Ultimately for all, it will be age. At first, it seems like a bad joke—needing a cane, memory loss, more care, forgetting even one’s own name. In Knock-knock, Lewis creates the persona of an older physician who should’ve known what’s in store. Sometimes the reality is grim, but there’s humor, love, and even romance in his inventive and poetic story-telling. “Lost-and-found / is not a planned / destination.” Yet we all eventually find ourselves there.
