Poems about Nature, Life and Laughter

Book Cover & Preview Text
Bamboo Flutes
It’s not the usual clarinet reed
but a sustainable, organic instrument.
Sliding fingers on rough plant nodules
trigger rich sounds flying along the stem.
An interactive medium is this hand and cane, with
keys and holes where every leaf plays a
perfect note.
Add a simple wire near the plant roots, and
it becomes a computer peripheral
changing the electrical life-force energy
into a Chopin symphony.
Tactile, kinetic, magical is this interactive
romantic garden of visual beauty and sound.
Behold another Disney creation:
Bontanicus interacticus—plants making music!

About the Book
The love of words, science, nature, Mexico and the American Southwest are the heart of Life Rocks! Poems about Nature, Life and Laughter. The new collection of poetry by author LizBeth Cone features works by author Michael Feldt. Along with original art and photos, these verses offer a poetic journey through human and universal ecology. They speak from the heart and spirit about joy, sorrow, love and laughter in life. The offerings included in Life Rocks! are seasoned with dashes from a dry sense of humor and the bitter-sweet umami of life.
Uplifting and sometimes irreverent, this compilation of free verse considers the realities of life, love and the natural phenomena of the world and within ourselves.
