JARDINS

This book contains the most beautiful poetry and the most beautiful gardens, waiting for the reader to penetrate them with the simplest delicacy.
 
The book Jardins brings fifteen small poems that represent the most diverse gardens. Very delicately, Roseana Murray touches the reader's imagination. Each poem-painting makes little ones discover the poetry that lives around them, in small things, like flowers, for example.
 
Flowers walk
in the blue of the day,
making colorful
silences,
as if they were scarves
of silk and air.
I liked your Jardins. From your garlands of words. I enjoyed reading your words capturing the perfumes, the colors, the shapes and the sun on the flowers. There is certainly a poet sensitive to the things of nature in this Jardins, declares Manoel de Barros, a great Brazilian poet. The organization of the poems with illustrations by the talented and award-winning Roger Mello creates a quality that touches adults and children. It's a true gift in book format.
