Thus, she quickly masters the language of sea\u2022sparkles, wind\u2022raptures, sand\u2022script and river\u2022murmurs. In all inner\u2022sense she assumes that the natural world is the Book of Knowledge from which all beings are learning the stories of their lives.<\/p>\n<p>Too soon, she discovers \u2013 to her alarm and dismay \u2013 that she views the world through very different eyes than do the people all around her. Through some innocent miscalculation, she appears to have wandered through the looking glass and exiled herself from the Nature Kingdom \u2013 with no knowledge of how to return.<br \/>\nPhilomela thus begins an in-depth exploration into the nature of this contrary world of metaphor and paradox in which she has essentially lost herself. By so doing she hopes to fulfill her unconscious reason for being here \u2013 and then, to find her back to the forest family of her dreams.<br \/>\n\u200b<br \/>\nPhilomela Nightingale shares her archetypal wRites of Passion in the elemental elfin tongue of rhythmic, rhyming, lyrical, light-woven verse \u2014 riddled with stunning punning, sparkling with the glitter of alliteration and spoken in sensuous, musical syllables.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; bottom_padding=&#8221;40&#8243; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221;][vc_column_inner column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Statement of Purpose&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h5|text_align:left|color:%23774c8f&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;5\/6&#8243; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<ul>\n<li>To entertain and delight<\/li>\n<li>To showcase the music, magic, beauty and mystery of words and the nature of reality<\/li>\n<li>To open words like oyster shells to reveal the pearls of wisdom and other surprises embedded within them<\/li>\n<li>To unveil \u2018the Secret Spells of the English Language\u2019 with which we write our own Life Sentences<\/li>\n<li>To heighten popular delight in the power and pleasure of using language skillfully<\/li>\n<li>To foster recognition of English as the leading software of the mind \u2013 leading to an awareness that we can collectively upgrade it to become as resonant with natural harmonies as the sounds of crickets and birds and in support of our essential evolution from humankind to HumanKindness.
