Explore the #ELEMENTSERIES with four poetry anthologies inspired by the magic & phenomena of the four major elements that make up our natural world. Each anthology is based on one of the four natural elements (fire, earth, air, water) & contains poems by various writers. We hope that this series will inspire one to connect with nature on a deeper / spiritual level, while also understanding one’s own physically destructive force upon the Earth, so that we might learn to preserve the health & beauty of this great planet.
