This poem by Swift Corwin was inspired by the Old Boston Preserve, which is protected by Great Works Regional Land Trust in Maine.

Writing the Land is a collaborative outreach and fundraising project for land protection organizations hosted by NatureCulture. Through our anthologies, poets help raise awareness of the importance of land conservation, ecosystems, and biodiversity.

Writing the Land is an attempt to honor nature and our relationship with it in a way that is as equitable and transparent as it is deep and entangled. As poets and advocates, we declare our intention that the scope of this project be as inclusive—to humans and places—as we hope the mantle of protection that land trusts offer can be. Our work in writing the land will never be complete but rather gains strength, depth, beauty, and energy from a multitude of voices.
