three white butterflies

The beauty of nature is in a whole other league from anything human beings could ever come up with. This beauty is everywhere, to the point that we often cease to notice it. One important function of art, including poetry of course, is to call attention to the wonders all around us that we habitually take for granted, to help us see them afresh, as if with new eyes. In creating this new collection of comic adaptations of great works of nature poetry, I have tried to pay tribute not only to the poems themselves but also to the natural world that inspired them.
