In this high pressure, fast paced world, it’s easy to lose sight of the beauty before us. This book is about taking even the briefest moments of time to notice nature.

These poems are an antidote to the harried digital world. There’s always time for one page of vividly descriptive yet simple and thoughtful poetry; that brief connection with the natural world, a “magical moment”, will follow you through your entire day. Better yet, Kantor hopes to inspire others to fully experience their own magical moments in nature.

Some of my most amazing experiences in nature happened in just seconds or minutes. I discover the magic of these moments in a peaceful place of mindful reflection.

Many of my poems’ first drafts were actually “written” in the water, woods, or other natural settings. The words often come to me during a meditative state. After putting them down on paper, I am often surprised at the metaphors and connections I discover. Much reflection and crafting then goes into forming the words into complete poems; a joyful revisiting of the experience that I am then able to share with readers.
