    About this ebook

    Thirteen meditations of an artisan country-dweller on home, place and sacred space. His glimpses of and conversations with the nature-spirits cohabiting that place. Prose-poem thank offerings to some and all of the beings who share this acre of forest and garden: raven, rock, worm, frog, heron, deer, moon, and all the others. Thanks for the visuals and the voices.
