Description:

Nature prepares her final work. She begins to strip her canvas of almost everything leaving only little pockets of colour, leaves and berry to cluster on the bleak structure of the land Her command of colour rises to another understanding. The shades of grey, the monochrome from white to black begin to solidify. Falling temperatures hold and freeze everything. The days shorten. The nights lengthen, throwing moon and starlight across the glistening canvas. She dazzles with storm and blizzard. Rest for her will not be easy. Our poets, who have seen this often, know it’s meaning. Their verse evocatively relays their thoughts, their musings, their understanding of all that surrounds the closing of nature’s year. In fifty poems we take you on their inspiring journey, reflecting on the miracle of winter. 01 - Fifty Shades of Winter - An Introduction 02 - Blow Blow Thou Winter Wind by William Shakespeare 03 - Some Too Fragile For Winter Winds by Emily Dickinson 04 - Come Come Thou Bleak December Wind (Fragment 3) by Samuel Taylor Coleridge 05 - Winter by Khalil Gibran 06 - I Who All The Winter Through by Robert Louis Stevenson 07 - Winter Calls by Daniel Sheehan 08 - A Wife in London (December 1899) by Thomas Hardy 09 - The December Rose by Edith Nesbit 10 - Sicily December 1908 by Henry Van Dyke 11 - Sweetheart Winter by Vachel Lindsay 12 - Ode Written on the First of December by Robert Southey 13 - A Calender of Sonnets - December by Helen Hunt Jackson 14 - The Idlers Calendar.
