More DescriptionWatching leaves scatter with the wind, or water spill over rocks, you can begin to feel the exuberant and subtle playing that is nature. In his poem, Play, Said the Earth to Air, Richard Lewis invites us to experience once again the play that makes up light and air, colors and sounds, as they are brought together with all that is playful in our individual ways of knowing and imagining. With evocatively rendered images by Heidi Neilson, transformed from an original puppet stage created by Gigi Alvaré for an arts and education project of the Touchstone Center, this book celebrates and unites the play of the natural world with what is equally and profoundly at play in each of us. A collaboration perhaps, more than ever, necessary for the well-being of all that is alive.
