I'm not going to rate this because I read this for the Read Harder challenge knowing I didn't like poetry. The message is good but felt scattered. If I did rate it, I'd probably give it 2 stars but I don't want to drag down the average.

A quick and easy read. It’s a poetic exploration of our connection to nature. Momaday's prose beautifully conveys the importance of preserving the Earth and embracing our role as stewards of the environment.

Each page inspired me to appreciate nature more. But it was very short.

How to sum up poetry? This book is a collection of poems by acclaimed Kiowa writer N. Scott Momaday about the earth, humans, and their relationship to one another. The poems convey the wonder of nature, especially the great plains of North America where Momaday grew up. It shares the wisdom passed down through generations, and includes a stirring call to the reader to be an earth keeper like Momaday himself. I'd like to own this book
