Here is a painting I did over ten years ago. I think it complements the poem, A Song of the Earth, on my previous post.
I am convinced there is is in everyone a very deep-seated sensitivity towards the needs of the natural world. . .
It is an actual part of the mind of Gaia, a genuine connection between our own self-awareness and the earth organism.
[This awareness] can become a conscious manifestation in our own minds of the ‘intelligence’ of Gaia, if we reject the unsustainability of the machine society.
I am retired and live in the NE of England. I try and keep active and interested and involved in a variety of activities: yoga, walking, writing and, since Sept 2019, taking groups round art galleries. We discuss what we have seen and share thoughts about how the works of art have affected us personally. Hopefully I can set up another blog/website about this latter subject before the New Year. My reading includes poetry, fiction, philosophy and other non-fiction. My writing reflects my interests, as you can see if you browse my blog-posts. A number of my poems and other writings have been published online.
