Nature is all around us. This calendar takes you on a journey through thought-provoking poetry and beautiful photography to witness nature like never before. Suitable for a monthly planner. Size is 11" x 8.5" when closed.
Here is the poem for the month of January:
Cold January
Snowflakes tumble from the sky. Juncos seek sustenance From the feeder found here. Crack, crunch, crush, repeat. Seed squabbles settled quickly- Hop, fly, or chase, it doesn’t matter.
Cold January has arrived. Snow stacks on surfaces white Like feathers from a fluffy down pillow. Trees sway slower. Ground muffled mute. Time to rest and reflect.
December’s excitement is over. New year is recuperating from it. Plans are pondered by one and all. Resolutions broken by noon. Darn! Life moves on at a gentle crawl. Meditate on the snow as it Falls, falls, falls.
A book of nature inspired poems and essays, written from the heart and soul of a life-long nature, animal, and wilderness lover, and dedicated to today’s children - Earth's only hope for a better tomorrow.
