Earth Talking Flora Fennimore

Earth's fingers bewitch humans with their collection of weeds and seeds, their soft and not-so-soft sounds of love and death, and their passion to sing from the "toes inside out." These utterances of nature speak the poetry of life. Earth Talking captures them in a collection of poetry designed for young and mature adults alike. Edgy black-and-white illustrations enhance Earth Talking's vibrant, verbal imagery. Through a fusion of picture and word, the reader is invited to identify emotionally with a diddling spider, a questioning, war-bothered adolescent, or a soft 'hushing' kiss.
