  • Poetic Lithic Expressions – Video 2

    For centuries, poets around the world have been inspired by viewing stones. Today poets are following in this tradition, writes Thomas Elias, Chairman, Viewing Stone Association of North America (VSANA).

    Twenty original poems inspired by three unusual and beautiful viewing stones are in this beautiful musical video—Poetic Lithic Expressions-2 created by Tom. I am grateful to him for the inclusion of two of my poems penned on two stones —Sacred Peak and One Million Stone.

    Congratulations to all featured poets.
