The Life Around Us Selected Poems on Ecological Themes - New Directions Paperbook, 843
Author: Denise Levertov
Gathered here in one handy volume are 62 poems about nature and the ecology.

Yet in this selection of sixty-two poems chosen by the author "celebration and fear of loss are necessarily conjoined." The Life Around Us shows us both the eternal renewal of the natural world and its imperilment.
