There was an old man who loved words; Not many words here for nerds. Lots of words that rhyme; Some will tickle your spine. These limericks demand to be heard. This collection came from a desire to delight readers of all ages—teachers, students, and families. The inspiration for these verses came from selected minutes in my daily life, and were written in random order for your enjoyment. These poems work best when you read them aloud to someone else. Let them paint a picture in your mind. Let them put a bounce in your step. Let the music of the language ring true in your ears.

In recent years, our poetic landscape has evolved in profound and exciting ways. So has our planet. Edited and introduced by the twenty-fourth Poet Laureate of the United States, Ada Limon, this book challenges what we think we know about "nature poetry," illuminating the myriad ways our landscapes—both literal and literary—are changing. You Are Here features fifty previously unpublished poems from some of the nation's most accomplished poets, including Joy Harjo, Diane Seuss, Rigoberto González, Jericho Brown, Aimee Nezhukumatathil, Paul Tran, and more.

Words can be a way to unlock our feelings. Poetry allows us to be in touch with our emotions and helps us unlock and explore our vulnerability.

The texts are not just about words which can console us or comfort us—though they often do this too. Rather these are poems that allow us to enjoy a full range of emotions.
