About this item
Do you or someone you know love poetry? This small poetry booklet makes a wonderful gift, whether you're saying Happy Birthday Thank you Congratulations! Good luck Safe travels Thinking of you! or many other reasons. The poem The Unmoving Quiet is about finding that peaceful, unshakeable state of mind and heart that is undisturbed by the usual comings and goings of thoughts and feelings. All the 23 original poems in this booklet are written by me, and are part of my mindfulness practice. They were written between 2012 and 2015. The A6 size makes a perfect pocket-sized gift. Many of the poems are inspired by the teachings of Buddhist Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh and were written on a retreat, sometimes in Plum Village, France where he resided. See the contents page in the photos. This is a listing for one poetry booklet. Please see my other listings for different booklets, and a set of all 4. UK postage is included in the price. The poetry booklet will be carefully wrapped and sent securely in recycled packaging as I am trying to be as eco-friendly as possible.

My poems come out of a mindfulness practice, something I began engaging with whilst researching a Ph.D. on Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh (http://plumvillage.org/). His teachings and indeed his poems have had a profound effect on me, It is in moments of awareness that the words of the poems just come, as if they are already in the air and I just pick them up and put them to paper. I was also helped to start writing by friend and fellow practitioner Pete, who led a Day of Mindfulness and poetry and said, ‘you can write a poem about anything’. These words unlocked something inside and the poems began to flow. I also lead mindful writing workshops and retreats, and for me the starting point of writing is being quiet and still enough to notice what is present, either around or within me. This is what I write about.
What buyers say about The Creative Space
All 7 reviews
These cards are beautiful. The poetry is just perfect. Each card contains words and situations that are familiar to many of us. Whoever reads them cannot fail for their mood to be uplifted. I will be enclosing them in cards and letters which I send. But these could equally be framed and hung on a wall to be read and enjoyed by friends and people time and again. Highly recommended. I'm so pleased I purchased two packs. The package arrived quickly and packaged with thought and care.
