LIFE LINES

Original Poetry and Photography

by David Lieberstein

This book is a collection of my favorite original Inspirational poetry

describing my experiences of nature, mindfulness, spirituality, love, relationships

and the nature of life itself.

I have been writing poetry for longer than I can remember.

Life inspires me, moves me to joy, laughter and tears through the years.My

poetry arises from mindfully being moved and inspired by nature that surrounds me,

especially on walks in the forest, mountains, and beaches.

I often get inspired to write when emotions arise within that are challenging,

to express pain as well as joy.

All forms of spirituality also are a big part of my creative writing expressions.

I have been meditating daily in the early mornings for the past 50 years,

to remember to be grateful for this day,

for all my relations, for my health and for being alive.

This informs my perspective of the day and my experiences in all forms.

I invite you to drink in the words, imagine the images

as if you are with me in these explorations

and feel the feelings that may arise from some of these poems.

I have chosen my favorite poems to share with you

and have arranged them thematically,

moving from earth, water, air to spirituality to insights about love

along with some of my favorite photographs that

I feel will add to the experience of the poems.

May you find continued inspiration and gratitude in your own life each day.
