About this ebook

 Lovecology is about nature, beauty and love – the very essence of a joyful and creative life. Poetry is the elixir of love – an elixir that makes love eternal. Love is not neutral and unconcerned. Love grows out of beauty, and beauty, out of nature. Nature, beauty and love coexist inseparably and cohesively, making life full of grace, joy and hope. Lovecology expresses this vital life-enhancing relationship through romantic poems composed on the canvas of nature and defines a living relationship between mankind and nature. When poetry evolves on the fertile ground of beauty, it assimilates the ability to tap into and gather cosmic energies. Poetry has been an eternal source of socio-cultural evolution, leading humanity to touch the core of sensitivity and attain perfection. Stimulate and inspire loving hearts and beautiful minds to preserve and enhance beauty and its living source, nature.
