In this episode we celebrate love: big beautiful love. This time of year, we’re programmed to focus on couple love. Cupid and his arrow, etc., among other cliches. But there is a much more expansive love available to us, Neptunian rather than Venusian. It’s terraphilia, as author Susan Tweit calls it. Love of the earth and all its inhabitants. Love for those with us and those who have departed. First, we’ll hear from writer Rowena Yeseta. Then we’ll welcome Maryam Barrie for another segment of Poetry Sustains.
