The poem featured in this post, Autumn Leaves, is found in Mary A. Maitland's book by the same title, published in 1907. Amidst the autumn gloom and the sad sight of fallen and crushed leaves, the poet is reminded that seasons will change again, ending the sense of grief and pain.
Iโm happy to present the eighth title in the Grammaticus Free Library series: โAn Alpine Divorceโ, an exciting crime story written by the Scottish-Canadian writer Robert Barr (1849โ1912). Itโs about a husband and wife who grew to hate each other with passion. While on holidays in the Swiss Alps, their marriage comes to its tragic and final end.
In this post I am going to share with you a wonderfully simple poem by Joyce Kilmer. Entitled โTreesโ, the poet uses it to express the majestic nature of these living beings, superior even to artistic creation and intelligence of man.
Clareโs short poem โSummer Moodsโ wonderfully captures the sense of enjoyment in a simple nature walk on a summer evening.
