About the Book
"Mindful haiku poems to help us rediscover our natural surroundings, without traveling too far from home."--Provided by publisher.Book Synopsis
Mindful haiku poems to help us rediscover our natural surroundings, without traveling too far from home.
Some flowers are the subject of nursery rhymes and childhood games while others help us celebrate love, remember our homelands or mark the passing seasons. These mindful haiku poems invite us to explore twenty-four flower species growing close to home, from wildflower meadows to urban window boxes.
The nature-themed follow up to My Mindful A to Zen, this gorgeous collection of poems teaches us that treating ourselves and our planet mindfully can also be a treat for the senses.
