Heart Sijo

This book, Heart Sijo, takes the broken pieces of our lives and reshapes them into songs that sing our heart awake. Poetry matches experience with reality, seeing the relationships between the invisible and visible. Nature poetry, using Korean culture images, teaches us that all societies, all things, are inter-related and inter-connected as one. Heart Sijo, weaves Beauty and Wonder into the ever-widening circles of our lives by capturing this adventurous enlightenment, making us healthier, happier, and more creative-moving us toward more meaningful lives.
