A beautiful collection of poetry that sings like music. It opens
the heart and invites mindful, loving awareness into the rhythm of
every part of life. -Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart
Poetry of Presence is a gift to the soul. Each poem in this
cherished collection is a meditation unto itself, a portal into the
mystery of sacred awareness. -Tara Brach, author of Radical

kitchen, carried in a purse or briefcase ... one poem at a time,
let loose in our hearts and minds."-Christina Baldwin, author of
The Seven Whispers and Storycatcher
These mindfulness poems help us wake up to the suffering of
people who are different from us. That's a long process-I'll be
waking up until the moment I die. But once we start to wake up, we
enter the conversation on human rights. -Sister Helen Prejean,
leading voice for death penalty abolition, author of Dead Man
Walking and River of Fire
This extraordinary collection of poems affirms what we have in
common as human beings, as well as what makes us unique. It invites
us, even in the midst of struggle and heartache, to choose to be
present in relationship with others, offering radical acceptance,
kindness, and courage." -Rabbi Karyn Kedar, author of Amen: Seeking
Presence with Prayer, Poetry, and Mindfulness Practice
Looking deeply at the lives they live and encounter, these poets
honor so many people, moments, and things we often fail to notice
or we turn away from. Thank you, poets, for opening our eyes and
our hearts.-Richard Brady, author of Walking the Teacher's Path
with Mindfulness: Stories for Reflection and Action
