Rating: 5/5 from 8 reviews best poetry and best prayersAlthough the title of the book is "Earth Prayers," the subtitle is "365 Prayers, Poems, and Invocations for Honoring the Earth." Indeed. You will find not only beautiful prayers written by modern writers and from ancient cultures, but complex poems that offer questions on the condition of the planet, and humans' place in the "Cycles of Life." One of my favorites is Allen Ginsberg's poem on pages 72-73. Great collection of earth prayers and poemsThis book brings together poems and prayers from all sorts of cultures honoring nature.

I like to just flip the book open and read a few to ponder. Simply wonderful. Keep in touch with the earthEnjoy the earth through literature, poetry and meditations with this guide.
