Pamela Haines Poetry Event "Alive in This World"

PAMELA HAINES AUTHOR EVENT:  ALIVE IN THIS WORLD

 

Philadelphia, PA:  Pamela Haines will speak via Zoom on her book of poetry, ALIVE IN THIS WORLD, on October 30th at 11:00 AM.

 

The collection of poetry is organized into three sections.  The first, A HOME WITH THE TREES, explores a relationship with trees with a growing understanding and gratitude.  In COMMUTER ENCOUNTERS, intimate contact with strangers on a trolley or bus invites reflection on humanity, connection and justice.  In the final section, A HOME WITH THE EARTH, the soil is a medium for meditation on nourishment and how living in small green city spaces can bring big gifts.  The poems are a call to pay attention to Life and to not let the world go by unnoticed.
