Richard Wain Poetry

Hi, I'm a poet from South Devon, writing poetry about the things that connect us. I'm also part of the Thrutopia writing movement, a group of writers shifting the narrative to help us imagine a path to a brighter future.

Here's some blurb from my recent book, Beyond the Brink is the Beginning:
Beyond the Brink is the Beginning is a deeply connecting and soothing balm for eco-anxiety. The poems in this book will take you on a journey from this world of uncertainty and ecological breakdown to the world of our potential thriving future. 
Beyond the brink of global catastrophe, the calamity of climate change and biodiversity loss, there is still hope for a new beginning. This book is about that beginning and the myriad ways that we can each weave magic back into this beautiful, untameable tapestry of life.
Richard's poetry has been described as riveting in its simple complexity, resplendent and inspirational. His work is respected by authors and activists from Manda Scott to Jeremy Lent.
