In a landscape often dominated by concrete and glass, these poems reveal the \"insurgent life\" thriving in the margins - from the dandelion cracking the sidewalk to the fox reclaiming the night.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is more than just a standard book of poems about nature; it is a guide to seeing the world differently. Blending lyrical verse with the narrative depth of prose poetry, the collection explores the deep, often invisible connections between the human soul and the living earth. These are poems of nature and spirit, asking us to stop looking at the horizon and start looking down - at the hydraulic patience of the roots beneath our feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA relatively fresh voice in poetry about the natural world, I invite you to shift our role from the King who takes to the Keeper who protects. The book bridges the gap between art and science, offering a unique take on eco poetry that includes an extensive \u003cb\u003e\"Field Guide\" appendix\u003c\/b\u003e.
