the poetry magazine for the environment
We may not like what is happening to our environment and the world around us but sometimes we can't afford or don't have the time to become actively involved with charities.
earth love has a solution!
For only £2.00 you can buy twenty-four pages of unique and original poetry by established and new poets and you can help the environment at the same time!
This is because all proceeds from earth love go directly to animal welfare and environmental charities.
All poetry in earth love has a conservation/nature theme and you too can contribute your own work. Just send it to the address below, including an SAE.
earth love is also looking for:
Black and white artwork
articles related to the earth love theme
inspirations
(Short pieces on books, poems, music, places, people that you have found inspiring)
issues are priced @ £2.00 or only £5.00 for a subscription of three!
to submit work or subscribe, send to:

current issue features
Forget about ash clouds, this quarterly's pages of earth love are erupting with poetry; a molten flow of words that will have you on hot springs. From the airy and sublime, to verse that will make you lava lot (have I overdone the volcano metaphors)? That's enough from me (it must be the sun). I will now deliver you into the skillful hands of our poets:
Sue Bunce whispers Secrets of the Sea , Geoff William takes us to a Japanese Garden, and Cardinal Cox muses on Slow Home Memories of Heavy Lincolnshire Horses.
Study the Science of Wood with Austin McCarron, or find yourself Between One End of the World and Another with Graham Fulton.
Peter Asher is Two Minutes Ahead, Keith Murdoch has An Odd Day in a Wood, Neal Wilgus explains why there are No Butterflies Allowed, and Mavis Gulliver introduces us to The Painted Ladies of Tiree.
With cover art from Vincent Berquez and illustrations from our much loved Tina Negus and the fabulous PEF. Also featured is an article by Michael Wright on John Freeman, the late nineteenth century Thursley poet. If you would like to see the work of neglected local bards being recognised, send your articles to the usual address for our Gone but Not Forgotten feature on the work of past local poets.
And finally, hold your breath no longer. The winners of the POETREE COMPETITION have been announced on our competitions page, along with details of how to obtain a copy of the upcoming Poetree Anthology. Love and light
The Ed.
