Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Most of us live in cities, and there is a rich tradition of poems about their tireless hustle and bustle. In Jessica Mookherjee's lively selection, we find poems that explore the hectic rhythms of day-to-day life in a city, as well as the rather more mysterious character of a city at night…a place where streetlights and drunken rooftops create a dreamscape in which anything might happen. Ever present is the sense that a city never stops: All afternoon labouring geese fly over the city. Cars hoot,sirens fugue. Beneath bank towers, a statue shifts. A man,blue clown, blows two-note whistles for a living. from 'Commerce, Madrid, 2012' by Carola Luther This mini-anthology transports us to cities real and imagined in a delightful kaleidoscope that shimmers and shifts at each rereading. Poems by Suzannah Evans, Andrew Fusek-Peters, Kapka Kassabova, Carola Luther, John McCullough, Jessica Mookherjee, Meryl Pugh, Roger Robinson, James Tate and Sara Teasdale. Cover illustration by Clare Curtis. Includes one poetry pamphlet, envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Childhood must be one of poetry's very favourite subjects. Countless poems try to capture the light and shade of being very young moments that lodge vividly in our adult memories. This beautiful mini-anthology ventures off the beaten track with poems that will be new to many readers. From a… group of children who: ".thought words travelled the wires In the shiny pouches of raindrops," - from 'The Railway Children' by Seamus Heaney to a baby entranced by mirrors and glass, we see the world in language that sparkles with newness. Mimi Khalvati's selection reflects her fascination with how we learn to talk and read, and there are poems about a first encounter with books and about children from different cultures playing ball and swapping words in a village square. Mimi Khalvati is an award-winning poet and founder of the Poetry School. Poems by Kayo Chingonyi, Jane Duran, Louise Glueck, Seamus Heaney, Elizabeth Jennings, Mimi Khalvati, Hannah Lowe, James Merrill, Tracy K Smith and James Womack. Cover illustration by Celia Hart.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What could be more evocative of heady summer days than a meadow in all its blowy, flowery glory? In this exquisite prose essay, leading naturalist Miriam Darlington takes us deep into the heart of a local meadow in her beloved Devon. She describes how a drained and threadbare place is regen…erated, how it slowly fills with flowers, insects, mammals and birds until it is teeming with life a patchwork of heaven. The meadow does its own work, but it is helped by human hands something that creates a passionate bond between the writer and this special habitat: I turned myself over to the hot blue sky, lying among eyebright, pimpernel and meadowsweet. My senses attuned to a tide of cricket-sound, the whirring voice of the grassland. from 'The Summer Meadow' by Miriam Darlington There are many kinds of meadow, we are told. By paying close attention to the particular, a treasured place is brought to life in all its vivid and unique beauty. Poems by EJ Scovell and Katharine Towers. Cover illustration by Niki Bowers. Includes one poetry pamphlet, envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Vikings, Romans, Normans. Grand industrial cities and national parks. Yorkshire encompasses so much that it probably takes poetry to do it justice. And who better to choose the poems than the 'Bard of Barnsley' Ian McMillan, who still lives in the Yorkshire town where he was born. The poems… travel the length, breadth and depth of the county, taking in weather (there's more than enough rain), cricket and coal-mining, alongside barges on the Humber and the wild glories of the Dales. Everywhere there is the sense of a deep-rooted history in a county where: what you see is not the whole story but the seam of something precious gone underground, a darkly silver trail from 'The 1984 Perspective' by Maura Dooley Yorkshire, it appears, is not only a place but a state of mind and these poems demonstrate that invigorating fact in a rich variety of ways. Poems by Maura Dooley, Helen Dunmore, David Harmer, Geoff Hattersley, Zaffar Kunial, Harold Massingham, Ian McMillan, Pete Morgan, Genny Rahtz and Florence Tweddell. Cover illustration by James Green. Includes one poetry pamphlet, envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Ten Poems about Tea has a fabulous introduction by Sophie Dahl (PG with milk, no sugar) and was the brilliant idea of Picador poet Lorraine Mariner, who also works as a librarian in the Poetry Library at London's South Bank Centre. She has helped choose the poems, advised us along the way a…nd agreed with our view that the cover of the pamphlet should feature a good, wholesome Dundee Cake rather than the more fashionable, flirtatious and ubiquitous cup cake. Tea (like Dundee Cake) will not be going out of fashion any time soon and the ten poems about it will, we hope, give your tea-time new heights of delight. Perfect for those of us for whom, to borrow from the lyrics, 'everything stops for tea'. As Kenny Knight rightly says in his poem 'Lessons in Teamaking', there was a time when, in the eyes of some, "the teapot was the centre / of the known universe". We hope that you will enjoy these poems as much as we have. No tea should be slurped from cup or saucer, we aren't fussy without them. Poems by John Agard, John Arlott, Tiffany Atkinson, John Betjeman, Eavan Boland, Sheila Hackney, Thomas Hardy, Kenny Knight, Michael Longley and Jo Shapcott. Illustrated by Jill Perry. Includes one poetry pamphlet, envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A daughter will always be a daughter, and this beautiful and tender selection celebrates that joyful fact. We begin with a birth and progress through the years via familiar landmarks; the beloved toys of early childhood and tricky teenage arguments lead to the inevitable moment when a daugh…ter must leave home. A poem about teaching a daughter to swim becomes a moving expression of a rite of passage into independence: You will watch her leaving the shore behind and the current will flow the right way. That day, the water will hold her - from 'Teaching Your Daughter to Swim' by Clare Shaw Running through every poem there is an abiding sense of the power of the bond between a parent and daughter and of course there is always love. Poems by Michael Brown, SL Grange, Harry Guest, Joanna Ingham, James P Lenfestey, Kim Moore, Marilyn Nelson, Clare Shaw, Anne Stevenson and Claire Walker. Cover illustration by Caroline Barker. Includes one poetry pamphlet, eco-envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Butterflies must be the most beautiful of all insects. They are with us while the warm weather lasts, and seeing a Brimstone in a garden early in the year is one of the most delightful heralds of spring's arrival. The vividness and frailty of butterflies as they flicker across our summer me…adows are why they seem to embody a sense of transience and may also be why they are so popular with poets. For Judith Wright a butterfly's short life is all about love: Lifted by air and dream they rose and circled into heaven's slipstream to seek each other over fields of blue. - from 'Wings' by Judith Wright This glorious selection celebrates butterflies from all over the world from a Swallowtail in the English Fens to a Spotted Jezebel in Australia and reminds us to look closely at their dazzling beauty while we can. Poems by Nandi Chinna, John Clare, WH Davies, Emily Dickinson, Robert Graves, Matthew Hollis, John Kinsella, Grace Nichols, Giles Watson and Judith Wright. Cover illustration by Carry Akroyd. Includes one poetry pamphlet, envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Most of us can remember our first kiss, whether it was glorious and transporting or merely awkward. Kissing, it transpires, can happen anywhere on a train, in a city park or against a kitchen fridge. The poems dramatise the fact that a kiss can make time stand still or send us into a dizzy…spin: And the world all whirling Round in joy Like the dance of a dervish - from 'Kisses in the Train' by DH Lawrence The selection wouldn't be complete without a sly antidote to all this romance, which is why we've included Mary Ruefle's 'Why I Am Not A Good Kisser' with its inventory of things not to do or think about when a kiss is in the offing. Poems by Kim Addonizio, Marjorie Allen Seiffert, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Robert Burns, William Drummond of Hawthornden, Hattie Gruenewald, DH Lawrence, Roddy Lumsden, David Mills, Shazea Quraishi, Mary Ruefle, Roberta Spear, Sara Teasdale and Jean Toomer.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Owls are birds that fascinate us, seeming to exist at the shadowy margins of our human lives. More often heard than seen, their nocturnal cries can be both haunting and exhilarating. These ten poems celebrate the elusiveness of owls, as well as the thrill of a rare sighting; when a little o…wl is spotted on the branch of an olive tree in Greece, it looks more like a small clay jar than a bird. In another poem, the near-silent flight of a barn owl offers a moment of spellbound intimacy: If breath was any animal, it's this. Glide and hush-sweep across the close-by fields of grain. - from 'Barn Owl on Newburgh Road' by Niall Campbell The poems remind us that an encounter with any wild creature is a gift and that meeting an owl in a poem can be every bit as magical as meeting one in the woods. Poems by Niall Campbell, Daniel Webster Davis, Emily Dickinson, Victoria Gatehouse, Ian Humphreys, Gregory Leadbetter, Rob Miles, Angela Readman, AE Stallings and Edward Thomas. Cover illustration by Niki Bowers. Includes one poetry pamphlet, eco-envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Everyday treat, indulgent luxury or an addiction we can't or won't break many of us have a passionate relationship with chocolate, making it perfect subject matter for poetry. This luscious mini-anthology celebrates preferences for milk or plain, pralines or fondants, rich truffles or the s…weetest hot chocolate drinks. Anyone who has ever craved chocolate will identify with poems that explore its sensuous aspects taste, texture, mouthfeel in an intensity akin to love. And if chocolate is like love, then these poems explore the depth and shape of that love: Knotted smoke, dark punch of earth and night and leaf, for a taste of you any woman would gladly crumble to ruin. - from 'Chocolate' by Rita Dove These entertaining, unexpected and moving poems also explore the history of chocolate, and the price paid by those whose hard work brings it to our lips.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Round a bend at the end of a deep lane where trees lean in over the track we find ourselves in a hidden Gloucestershire valley. This richly lyrical essay by leading naturalist Miriam Darlington brings us owls and wrens, hibernating ladybirds and an old orchard where windfall crab apples mel…t into the soft earth. Humans and animals alike are hunkering down ready for the cold season ahead. Tasks such as sweeping leaves and clearing gutters are woven into the parallel rhythms of the natural world, so that indoors and outdoors are brought into intimate harmony: Another dusk. Rain-mist muffles everything, softens the valley's curves. It's a different sort of time here. Leaf-slip time, brown and gold and copper leaves, of whitebeam, beech, alder. A churring comes from somewhere. A deer barks, and the night becomes creaturely again, breathes at the lit windows. Written with loving attention to the lives of plants, insects and animals, these words are best enjoyed by a blazing fire or curled up in a favourite armchair after the curtains have been drawn. Poems by Ronnie Goodyer and Stanley Plumly. Cover illustration by Simon Palmer. Includes one poetry pamphlet, eco-envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This mini anthology belongs to our popular series of UK regional titles, and features poems that capture the vivid landscapes and atmospheres of the Dark and White Peaks. There's a celebration of the very particular Derbyshire tradition of well dressing, alongside poems that take us up onto… the high moors and down into the tunnels under Ladybower Reservoir. At an iconic Dark Peak landmark, we encounter a raw landscape that tricks the mind into altered perceptions: It is endless, a stranded reef which seeps and surges indefinitely. Paths slip under streams; pools hover; stones become sheep become stones. - from 'Kinder Downfall, 24 April 1932' by Rob Hindle The selection is proof (if needed) that the Peak District is equal to the Lake District in its power to fire the imaginations of poets who live in it or who simply love it for its wild beauty. Katharine Towers is a poet who lives in the White Peak. Poems by Rob Hindle, Helen Mort, Alistair Noon, Mark Pajak, Peter Riley, Anna Seward, Katharine Towers, Tony Williams, River Wolton and Warda Yassin. Cover illustration by Ian Parkinson. Includes one poetry pamphlet, eco-envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message.

There's the dazzle of the sea and mysterious biolumi…nescence from the natural world. The poems also explore what light can mean to us as humans, with its promise of hope and a happier future. And there's lighting a candle in remembrance of a loved one: a sign says, and say a prayer, so I do. I light it for you, you who made the world a brighter place, and leave it burning. - from 'Fire lit up the sky' by Carole Bromley We hope that this dazzling selection will offer moments of lasting joy a poem (like a candlestick) being a lovely bearer of illumination.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In this delightful mini anthology we find touching and uplifting poems exploring sons as babies and sons as young men, as well as everything in between. We meet a boy daydreaming in bed on a summer's evening, his mother delighting in his wakefulness as his imagination roams in the dark. The…re's a son begging his dad for a bedtime story, which must be different from the last one. And then there are unforgettable rites of passage such as a gap year, which turns out to be as much of an adventure for the parent as for the child: My heart soars like the birds in your bright blue skies. My love glows like the sunrise over the lost city. I sing along to Ella Fitzgerald, A tisket A tasket. I have a son out in the big wide world. - from 'Gap Year' by Jackie Kay The poems are a reminder of the delights, joys and endless surprises of watching a son grow through childhood into whatever happens next. Poems by Emily Blewitt, Josephine Corcoran, Glyn Edwards, Langston Hughes, Jackie Kay, Galway Kinnell, Li-Young Lee, David Morley, Sinead Morrissey and Naomi Shihab Nye.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This addition to our series of UK regional titles brings the drama and beauty of the Lake District landscape into glorious focus. We encounter dry-stone walls, sublime heights, lakes (of course) and experience an evening dip in the cooling waters of a tarn. The selection wouldn't be complet…e without a poem by Wordsworth who captures the tranquillity of a quiet valley in a moment of typically blissful contemplation: A soft eye-music of slow-waving boughs, Powerful almost as vocal harmony stay the wanderer's steps and soothe his thoughts. - from 'Aira Force Valley' by William Wordsworth The double-edged sword of tourism is also present in a sonnet which imagines what this most famous of Lakes Poets would make of the world of postcards and car parks. The poem's conclusion is a reminder that the sublime will outlive any human interference. Polly Atkin is a poet who lives and works in the Lake District. Poems by Polly Atkin, Rachael Bates, Paul Farley, Katie Hale, Matthew Hollis, Eileen Pun, Tom Rawling, Reshma Ruia, William Wordsworth and David Wright. Cover illustration by Mark A Pearce.
