With this collection of poems I am endeavouring to make my words reflect a very personal experience of nature. But one which is open to all of us. In our everyday lives there is a paucity of opportunity to engage directly with the natural world. Any encounters we are likely to have are equally likely to be small and limited in scale. We have lost so much. But if we rejoice in what we do have, then surely we will want to replenish the planet. We must recognise the worth of every other form of life and that each individual life is as significant to itself as ours is to us.

In doing so, we have to admit the part our every day existence plays in the demise of the global ecology. And THEN we can change it. Geoff Francis England 2020

Autorenporträt
Geoff Francis is a Saatchi-shortlisted artist, sculptor, award-winning photographer, published author of fiction and non-fiction with 13 books to his credit, a film-maker and poet. A vegan for 47 years, all Geoff's work and projects have had an ethical theme at their core. Geoff set up and ran the first paper recycling for the nascent Friends of the Earth in 1971, and Animaline for Linda McCartney, Carla Lane and Rita Tushingham in the 1980s. Geoff also has a long-term involvement with Hillside Animal Sanctuary and is a trustee of Journey's End Animal Sanctuary in Florida. Most recently, Geoff's vision has led to his co-founding the environmental charity No More Dodos, which uniquely uses sport and art to inspire individual action for change, and to support organisations working on behalf of endangered species and habitats.
