Seedpod and other poems for meditation Krys Call

These poems are meant for readers who want to consider the possibility that compassion, regeneration, and mystery can be found in the details of everyday life. Natural phenomena, humans, companion animals, human-made objects, and abstractions compose the subject matter of the poems. Their underlying theme is the transcendent within the temporal. Some readers use the collection as a companion to personal thought or individualized forms of spiritual meditation springing from or including various cultural and religious traditions. The purpose of the poems is enjoyment. It is hoped that they will provide supplemental nourishment for people who derive sustenance from observing nature and also for those who are intrigued by notions regarding the implicate order. Collectors of verbal curiosities will find archaic and arcane vocabulary such as words which were considered old-fashioned in the 1890's, and also modern terminology crafted by the arts and sciences for technical use. They are there to be enjoyed for the way they look and sound as much as for their meanings. Readers who want to read in an uninterrupted, contemplative manner will find that obsolete and technical terms have been placed to be understood contextually to get the sense of the poems.
