This new anthology of poems, favourites from the nation's
longest-running and best-loved request programme for verse, moves
with the seasons, following the turning year from John Clare's
'pale splendour of the winter sun' to John Keats's 'Season of mists
and mellow fruitfulness', by way of Larkin's 'young-leafed June'
and Gerard Manley Hopkins' 'glassy peartree leaves and blooms' when
'Nothing is so beautiful as Spring'. As the year changes, so we
change with it. Since time out of mind our daily lives have been
shaped and directed by the seasons, and it is here that we find
poems about harvest and hardship, growth and new life, the warmth
of the life-giving sun, Christmas and the closing of the year.
Poetry Please: Seasonal Poems is a vital and generous gathering to
treasure.
