<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Poetry of kindness, gratitude and compassion for a healing world.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>As the world grapples with the tragic human cost of the global pandemic and its aftermath, the need for kindness and gratitude has become more important than ever. <em>The Ministry of Flowers </em>is in many ways a book for our times, one that offers hope in a changing world. The poems call into stark relief the brevity of human life, while also emphasizing the urgent need to connect with others and offer acts of kindness as a way of healing and moving forward.</p><p><br></p><p>Taking its title from an Emily Dickinson poem, the book explores how flowers, both real and metaphorical, are at the heart of a kinder world. With a strong ecological focus, the poems celebrate nature's continual ministry in our lives and highlight the need to respect the ecosystems that sustain us. <em>The Ministry of Flowers </em>speaks eloquently to a society in need, in which compassion as well as forgiveness (of both self and others) become the seeds of the gentler, fairer world we seek.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'A truly compelling and original work.' <strong>- John Sibley Williams</strong></p><p><br></p><p>'These poems will break your heart but leave you feeling uplifted, more grateful to be alive.' <strong>- Faisal Mohyuddin</strong></p><p><br></p><p>'A collection that will resonate long after you have turned the last page.' <strong>- Fiona Bennett</strong></p><p><br></p><p>'I'd begun to think that no poetry could reach me this year ...
