"And on that day
we hung around home
and drank a lot of coffee
and on that day
the ordinary
was simply
divine
- the little things"

From the book. I think that poem in some small--yet extraordinary way sums up how I feel about most of the book. It is at once a celebration of those ordinary moments in our day and also, encouragement to look within ourselves. .

The author covers four different categories: Buddhist Hotline; Honeypot; Concerned on Behalf of the Universe; and Lightwork. Each poem is an thought-provoking way to look at the world and our lives.

The section titled Honeypot contains very graphic sexual poems that may not be for everyone. For the most part, my favorite section was Buddhist Hotline as I have always gotten so much from Buddhist teachings, and it is the reason I was drawn to the book in the first place.

Well done. I enjoyed this book.
