Fascinated by the beauty of nature, I am setting out on small expeditions of a special kind, curious and with all senses open. Walking slowly through layers of forest undergrowth, visiting ancient mother trees, the walks turns into small spiritual journeys. Nature offers answers to my questions, gives small insights, and feelings of connection, of being one with everything. Following beetles and dragonflies on their paths, zooming in on them, I never know what they will teach me. Because they do teach - I only have to become quiet and listen. And from that space, poetry arises.<br/><br/>Poems by Ulla Conrad, www.ullaconrad.com<br/>Photos by Semko Balcerski, www.semko.dk
