A Fool for Nature

Robert Lindsay

3 ratings 2 reviews
A finely wrought poetry collection at the price of a cup of trendy coffee; this is a set of poems which may increase your sense of connection to nature. To know - if you didn't already - that you are one with nature. The topics vary a lot. Yes there are plenty of trees, birds, fields, stars and various animal vignettes, but some of these poems get quite philosophical about the nature of things: DNA, free will, ancient Chinese sages, seizing the day, the paradox of seeking wisdom and the importance of silliness. The book title comes from one of the poems, and it's a reference to the song: 'Fool on the hill' by John Lennon and Paul McCartney.
