'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free

'Tis the gift to come down where I ought to be . . .

Shaker Song attributed to Joseph Brackett

The simple pleasures of our favorite places in nature are gifts of the spirit to be shared with others. In this collection of 53 haiku, each paired with a nature photograph, poet Elizabeth Gauffreau invites readers to join her on a poetic journey through the picturesque landscapes of Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. Each poem captures a moment of clarity and serenity, offering a window into the tranquil beauty of northern New England and the profound feelings these places evoke. Through her blend of poignant haiku and vivid imagery, Gauffreau creates a relatable and uplifting experience that resonates with anyone who cherishes nature's gifts and the memories made with loved ones in these serene settings.
