A Nature Poem for Every Summer Evening
A Nature Poem for Every Summer Evening
Poems to celebrate summer.
Pour out a long drink, take a seat under a shady tree, and lose yourself in this sublime collection of nature poems for summer. From William Shakespeare to Emily Dickinson, John Keats to Isaac Rosenberg, some of the finest poets that ever put pen to paper describe the slow, langorous, glowing evenings of the season.
With one entry for every summer day, from 1 June to 31 August, this collection of 92 poems will provide the perfect backdrop to those balmy summer evenings in the garden, from Christina Rossetti's 'larks hang singing, singing singing over the wheat-fields wide' to Eugene Lee-Hamilton's 'rich, hot scent of old fir forests heated by the sun', Samuel Palmer's evocative descriptions of summer twilight to Rachel Field's whimsical musings on butterflies.
This beautiful and collectable anthology of poems derives from the popular A Nature Poem for Every Night of the Year and also features summery poems from Geoffrey Chaucer, Amy Lowell, Gerard Manley Hopkins, William Blake and many more.
