Hi. My name is Stacy Smith and I had a poetry book published called Reflections of Nature. It is an anthology poetry book of only nature poems. It contains 121 poems, written in rhyme, by 50 different poets, including myself. It is 181 pages and contains illustrations as well. This book shows an appreciation for nature and I think that anyone who enjoys reading nature poems would enjoy this book. The book is available at Xlibris (the publisher) at: http://www.xlibris.com/bookstore. The price for hardback is $25 + shipping and paperback is $16 + shipping.
Shipping rates:

If you click on the first link on the links page it will take you directly to the book, on Xlibris, where you can order it. If you click on the second link it will take you to Field and Forest, which is a neat web site that is nature-related and has many beautiful nature poems and photographs to look at. Eight of my poems are there that appear in the book. If you click on the third link it will take you to FreeStockPhotos.com, which is a web site that offers free photographs to use on web sites and is a courtesy of Bearpeak Publishing. They are the company who did the cover photo on the book. It's a beautiful picture and made the cover look really nice. I want to thank them again for giving me permission to use it and also I want to thank all the poets again for giving me permission to use their poems. I appreciate it very much! The last link is to findpoetry.com which is a site where you can search in different categories for poems. It is a good way to find the poem you're looking for.
The next page shows eight examples of poems that are in the book.
The last page is a poem that really touched my heart. It is called Wild Horses. It is not in the book but I wanted to include it on my webpage because it's one that has a heartfelt message but if you don't like sad poems than don't read it...
