The Wonder of Nature in Rhythm & Rhyme

By Melody Hamby Goss and Gerd Annie Nystrom

“There is pleasure in the pathless woods, there is rapture on the lonely shore, there is society, where none intrudes, by the deep sea, the music in its roar; I love not man the less, but nature more”—this poem by Lord Byron speaks to my soul.

Fantasy and fairies dance to the music of nature in this book. Original artwork creates expression for the words, giving meaning to singing frogs and swirling shores while questioning mankind’s treatment of our earth and the environment.

Learn the secrets of the universe by touching a star or riding a moonbeam. Hear sunshine or see wind blowing while watching a dewdrop fall to the sea. As John Keats said, “The poetry of the Earth is never dead.” Close your eyes while imagining nature in fantasy.
