Ecological Meditations A Collection of Poems is a unique book of poetry that reveals layer upon layer of insight into the human condition. Each poem is focused upon the heart of a particular thought, emotion, experience, or subject of study. The poems unfold sometimes logically, and sometimes with an element of surprise or wonder, transporting the reader into a realm that can be touched by a consciousness of all the sense faculties. The poems address universal principles and are close to nature both human and ecological. The insights revealed are based upon deep reflection and meditation upon the primary thought or feeling behind the poem. Ecological meditations is about an extended ecology one that begins with the individual gaining a consciousness of self in relation to nature, moving forth into relationships both intimate and casual, extending further into personal growth that understands and equally questions received societal wisdom. Religion is regarded with regard to spiritual development and due respect is paid to the Hindu and Christian faiths. In reading the poems, at times one gets the feeling that beyond religion there exists a universal ethic of respect for life that is informed by good science, love, and the desire to be joyful and positive in all manner of being. The audience of this book can be the teenager who is looking to find meaning, or even the career person who is fully engaged, and surprisingly, also the elderly person whose nest is now empty. The lover and the seeker, both will find something of lasting value within these pages. Ecological Meditations is a book of poems with appeal for almost everyone who has the inclination for self reflection."
