Winter: the time of the year when the nights close in and
the temperature drops below freezing. It seems like a season that everyone
struggles to get through, only enduring it because of the promise of spring’s
return. For many, however, it is the bounty of Christmas that steals their
attention; for others, it is the renewal of the New Year. But for nature it is
pause for breath, to take stock of what has gone by in the year and ready itself
for the energies and dramatic development that spring will bring. Winter has
its beauty too: the frost covered ground, the grey swell of the sea, and the
bleak yet beautiful stark landscape.
Our collection of poems brings together the talents of many
beloved poets such as Thomas Hardy, Robert Browning, Emily Dickinson, Daniel
Sheehan, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Robert Louis
Stevenson, and Emily Bronte, to catalog and celebrate this season.
