A classic Batsford poetry collection, now reissued with a stunning new cover.
This calming anthology of nature poems, with one for every day of the year, is the perfect bedside companion to help you relax and unwind at the end of every day.
Now more than ever were in need of a daily fix of the natural world, to comfort and distract us from the cares of everyday life. Keep this beautiful book by your bedside and enjoy a dreamy stroll through nature every evening, just before you go to sleep. All the great, time-honoured poets are here William Wordsworth, John Keats, Emily Dickinson, Robert Bridges along with some newer and less well-known poetic voices. The poems reflect and celebrate the changing seasons: read Emily Brontë on bluebells in spring and Edward Thomass evocative Adlestrop in summer, then experience golden autumn with Hartley Coleridge and get some winter comfort from William Blakes To Winter. Beautifully illustrated with scenes from each season, this wonderful book deserves a place on your bedside table for years to come.
