For Rhino in a Shrinking World 
“What we need within us in the world today,are the sounds of the earth crying”. (Zen quote narrated by Dr Ian Player, July 2012. Congratulations Harry on an inspirational effort to collect the works of so many poets who care. May the writings of these poets, enlighten that which we cannot see and bring truths from a future we cannot control into the present, which we can. Will Fowlds
Your own work and humanity were the starting point for this book, Will, and you are a real inspiration for others to follow in trying to preserve the irreplaceable natural world for our children. More power to you!
This is going to be a fantastic and important anthology, Harry! Kudos to you for pulling it all together. I am honoured to be included. I believe poetry (and all the arts) is the truly effective path to change and to public awakening. In the words of American Composer Leonard Bernstein: “This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before.”
