"The Poetry of Nature" is especially published by PT Semen Gresik (Persero) Tbk. to celebrate its 50 years anniversary of dedication to serve the nation, and as a tribute to nature's best friends—the trees.

We often take it for granted that the trees will always be here with us—forever. But for how long can this continue at the rate they are felled today?

This is the message that the book is trying to convey through its powerful black and white photography and eloquent narrations—poems and essays by concerned individuals from all walks of life, including a special poem and message by the president of the Repulic of Indonesia, Dr. Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.

It is our sincere hope that this book will help spark a little inspiration to start our very own conservation act today.
