Book Description

January 1, 2002
This beautiful little book is filled with amazing insight and imagery, especially considering it was written by a ten-year-old. Tevon's views of nature and the universe will be rewarding and thought-provoking to any reader.

Sample about a river:
"It slithers downstream smoothly,
gracefully as an otter,
then roars, exploding up,
tall as a tree.

At night it reflects the moonlight
walking upon its silky
lavender surface
and dancing upon its ripples.

From "Lamp of Hope"
"It guides us through our day.
Web of life
hitching start to star
braiding itself across the universe"

"These are lucid gems from a new astonishing mind. Think of these poems as....light reflected from the future..." -- Paul Hawken, Author
