Product Description
by Cheryl Lynn Peele (Author)
"Earthquakes in Our Fingertips" is a collection of poetry and drawings which draws us to answer the call to become active stewarts to the fragile, beautiful world and all it's inhabitants which we call home. "Whales migrate, stars rise bees are guided to each flower. Sap flows through every tree in tune to the pulse of the planets," is a quote from the poem "Earthquakes in Our Fingertips." Here is a way of joyfully viewing our place in the natural order of life on earth.
