As Steam Rises David Michael Lippman

As Steam Rises is a collection of poetry written on quiet mornings in the Redwoods, with a mug of coffee. 10% of As Steam Rises proceeds go to RedeemingGrounds.com: cutting down cocaine fields and growing coffee instead. Steeped in ancient wisdom and full of wonder, longing, and authenticity, the poetry of David Michael Lippman gently traces the balance of spiritual and practical insight, illuminating the miraculous within the ordinary. Pick up this book if you long for words that articulate your heart, stretch your mind and deepen the groanings of your soul. Read this before a warm mug. Quiet yourself from the busy world around. Let the words speak. Let your thoughts brew. Let your mind relax and consider the present. Bring yourself to the poem. Underline your favorite parts. Linger a moment or two. Be. And become.
