Read selected excerpts from More Than Words, Astrid Morwen’s intimate poetry collection about love expressed through quiet gestures, memories held by familiar objects, words left unsaid, and the slow work of healing.

Nature's Whispers is a collection of hygge nature poems about the art of noticing. Dew on clover. A sleeping bee inside a foxglove. Rowan berries bright after rain. A leaf turning once through green air before it falls. These are the moments we walk past every day — small, quiet, unhurried — and yet they are the ones that bring us closest to the living world. Written in Astrid Morwen's calm, patient voice, these poems stay close to nature and the human heart.
