A moving collection of lyric poems by Edward Shanks that threads love, memory, and nature through brisk, musical lines. This edition brings together intimate lyrics, world-worn reflections, and vivid scenes that shimmer with emotion and sharp observation.
framed by spare, musical language, the verses travel from quiet romances to Foreshadowing of war, and from hedgerows and meadows to the heart’s private weather. Readers will encounter tender moments, wry humor, and a poetic voice that shifts between dreamlike imagery and grounded storytelling.
• Experience intimate love poems that balance sweetness with doubt and distance
• Watch the natural world and changing seasons illuminate mood and memory
• See war-era poems that contrast daily life with broader historical moments
• Enjoy witty, playful pieces that bend language and tease the imagination
Ideal for readers who enjoy classic British lyric poetry, reflective love sonnets, and poems that fuse everyday life with larger feelings.

THE WORLD'S WINTER. SAIDST thou, The night is ending, day is near? Nay now, my soul, not so; We are sunk back into the darkness drear, And scarcely soon shall know Even remembrance of the sweet dead day; Ay, and shall lose full soon The memory of the moon, The moon of early night, that cheered our sunless way.
