Garden Tools

At its heart, Garden Tools reminds us of what it means to tend to life-aware of the moon at dusk, the eyes of a child, a walk in the woods, and the impermanence of our place in the world, and the brevity of life. In this collection of poems, writer David W. Berner observes the richness in the everyday, the glory of nature, the magnificence in the ordinary, and the mystery that is the human spirit. Through curious eyes, Berner keenly notices the delicate nuances among the seemingly mundane and the abundant mysteries of nature, of the divine, and the beauty of being wholly awake to the magic that is often hiding in shaded corners. David W. Berner writes inside a small writing shed on his property outside Chicago. Garden Tools is his first collection of poems.
