As We Are Creation

Like a gentle rain falling on parched earth, this is poetry to nourish the soul. As We Are Creation brings together reflections on the natural world and our inner reality to reveal the spiritual essence of existence. As Barrette relates in "Your Gift,"

Truth, in its pure form, a quiet lesson brought
In opening a heart to gratitude, the message given-
Creation's gift

The poetry in this collection discovers pure truth in the energetic ebb and flow of life; in the flowing quality of sunlight; in the cracks of strong tree bark and the hues of a fluttering dragonfly. Written from a place of complete gratitude and reverence towards Creation, Barrette's poems encourage us to be present, to be curious, to wonder: to celebrate the world around and within us, and to understand ourselves as part of Creation's plan.
