Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
Alex Dimitrov’s third book, Love and Other Poems, is full of praise for the world we live in. Taking time as an overarching structure—specifically, the twelve months of the year—Dimitrov elevates the everyday, and speaks directly to the reader as if the poem were a phone call or a text message. From the personal to the cosmos, the moon to New York City, the speaker is convinced that love is “our best invention.” Dimitrov doesn’t resist joy, even in despair. These poems are curious about who we are as people and shamelessly interested in hope.

Gazing at the Moon
Author: Meredith McKinneyPublisher: Shambhala Publications
ISBN: 1611809428
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 157
Book Description
A fresh translation of the classical Buddhist poetry of Saigyō, whose aesthetics of nature, love, and sorrow came to epitomize the Japanese poetic tradition. Saigyō, the Buddhist name of Fujiwara no Norikiyo (1118–1190), is one of Japan’s most famous and beloved poets. He was a recluse monk who spent much of his life wandering and seeking after the Buddhist way. Combining his love of poetry with his spiritual evolution, he produced beautiful, lyrical lines infused with a Buddhist perception of the world. Gazing at the Moon presents over one hundred of Saigyō’s tanka—traditional 31-syllable poems—newly rendered into English by renowned translator Meredith McKinney. This selection of poems conveys Saigyō’s story of Buddhist awakening, reclusion, seeking, enlightenment, and death, embodying the Japanese aesthetic ideal of mono no aware—to be moved by sorrow in witnessing the ephemeral world.
Wandering by Moonlight

Pages : 75
Book Description
With the gift of illuminating the darkness, the moon holds a special place in many hearts as a sign of quiet strength and beauty. In a collection of poems divided into four sections—crescent, half, gibbous, and full moon— Wandering by Moonlight explores what the heart sees, feels, and remembers, while reflecting on the awakening of dreams, imagined journeys, and portraits of nature. Lovely, quiet, and challenging, these poems explore a deep awareness of human strength and frailty wrapped in nature’s many gifts for a spirit willing to know what it means to travel the seasons, to live a life by paying attention.
