Magical Meadow is a poem that takes the reader into a hidden world of insects and other tiny creatures that we often forget about
as we rush about our daily lives. Beneath an early morning cloud of mist is a world full of critters like bees, spiders, crickets and
mice playing, dancing and socializing as the sun warms their home. Meadows are important and beautiful ecosystems that hold a
whole world of discovery for children and adults alike.
An informative summary about the benefits of Meadow Preservation is included by land conservationist, Frank Allen, president of Patuxent Tidewater Land Trust (PTLT).
Discover the delightful world of creatures and plants bursting with activity that could be found just beneath your feet in a meadow near you.
