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:

PO Box 11219

Please remember to include an SAE when submitting work.
Cheques/POs made payable to earth love.
