"They are not long, the days of wine and roses
" - Ernest Dowson
This collection of more than 100 poems is intended to inspire mindfulness. Mindfulness is the art of being in the moment, being present, and aware or all sights, sounds, tastes, and sensations. Poetry asks us to look at the world around us, to wonder in its beauty, to grasp the moment with both hands as everything will pass, good or bad, and they can even encourage us to move past life's greatest hurdles. Here you will be inspired by the words of some of the greatest poets such as:
•
Emily Dickinson
Walt Whitman
William Wordsworth
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Bask in their words, focus on them, read them aloud, allowing yourself to be fully in the present moment. All packaged in a beautifully designed book with simple illustrations, this poetry collection is small enough to carry with you, allowing you to seek a moment of mindful calm wherever you are.
