We see only a fraction of what is around us. Preoccupied with our internal conversation and with our problems and crises, we do not see most of Reality. Our perceptions are atrophied. At moments the veils can lift, and we can see directly, without concepts or conditioning. In those moments, the world becomes magical, stunningly beautiful and infinitely mysterious. While in this state, the simplest things can move us to strong emotion and wonder. The 77 poems in this little book are all about the struggle to develop and reclaim this awareness of the Miraculous. The living Cosmos is presenting Itself to us every moment. We must wake up and learn to see.
