Selected poems by Hideo Yokokawa
TThe
most important thing for us to live through the modern era is the bliss
extended to us by nature, as well as the fine arts for our five senses.
This book of poetry is designed and edited for a wide range of readers,
and, even if you are not familiar with modern poetry or even not interested
in it, you may read and enjoy it. Above all, I do not stand for any
particular thought, religion or group at all. I wrote for you, the
individual, an independent existence. -- Author

Carrying Water in a Sieve
Selected poems by Jeanne Shannon
"How
to express" is an important factor for poetry. In this respect, with
her limpid intelligence, matured knowledge and condensed laconism, Jeanne
Shannon has succeeded in
creating a unique method by utilizing words which usually are only
distantly related to the standard/traditional diction of poetry. Also,
I like her attentiveness to the natural world, which is highly
regarded by many readers over here in
Japan, too.

Nature's Misteries
Selected poems by Samuel E.
Stone
Mother nature is a world of
complexity beyond the realm of our reasoning yet holds the simple
pleasures and beauty that touches
our very soul; from a blade of grass to the sky above nature provides us
with a spiritual journey where we can discover inner peace

Pillars of A Landscape
Selected poems by
Aftab Seth
He shows the poet's spiritual landscapes, touches and
arouses something lying deep inside one's heart. Whether it is a
joy, a sorrow or a pain, people see their lives more gently, and
are encouraged to experience various aspects of their life much
deeper in their future. The landscape in his spirit and his deep
insights into life have surely inspired me. Now I will continue
to read his poems much deeper to follow his spirits and to
inspire me more.
