Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems and Canadian Lyrics This volume contains some rude verses upon different subjects, written at hap-hazard and in all manner of places, from the forests of the Black River to the Halls of Laval, from the Indian Wigwam to the House of Commons; in newspaper offices, law offices, and government offices in court rooms and lumber camps in monastic retreats and election campaigns. Written, thus, under such different circumstances, in such different moods and 'midst such different scenes, these lines are variegated in spirit, in tone, in feeling and even in construction.

Download or read book The Last Robin written by A. Ethelwyn Wetherald and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enjoy the pastoral poetry of The Last Robin: Lyrics and Sonnets, a collection of the best loved poems of Canadian author A.E. Wetherald. The poems, which celebrate the beauty of nature and the magic of childhood, are well known to Canadian schoolchildren and appear in many textbooks. Wetherald's style uses mostly rhyming verse couplets, eschewing the free verse that became popular with the rise of modernism: The sun of March is hot and bold / The rain of March is loud O jessamine your cups of gold / Uplift to sun and cloud --The Wild Jessamine The poems frequently refer to birds, like robins and chickadees, and comment on the passage of time through the changing seasons. In this sense Wetherald may be considered a pastoral writer, and almost sentimental. A closer reading reveals that the poems speak of darker themes as well. Wetherald does write about death and loss, absence and silence: There was a time I learned to hate / As weaker mortals learned to love The passion held me fixed as fate / Burned in my veins early and late --The Wind of Fate The poems celebrate more than just birds. Owls, bats, insects and other natural phenomena are memorialized in verse and their presence makes this a fine volume for children. Adults will identify with the themes of birth, death, nature, memory and home. The Last Robin: Lyrics and Sonnets is a book the whole family can enjoy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bird of Dawn, and Other Lyrics The work included herein has been done under difficulties. It is the grist of the years from the publication of Mary Magdalene and Other Poems, in 1914, until now. Some of the friends who inspired my work are dead, - grief has knocked at the door. Sam Wood, natur alist, has gone along. Emmanuel Tasse, of Ottawa, whose wife com posed and brought out our war song, died the following year. The Bridge of Gold was written for him whilst he was still with us. Of our boys who went to the war some of the dearest and best are dead or missing. My thanks to Dr. Watson for his nature poetry, which suggested my title piece, The Bird of Dawn. He made the first copy on his own typewriter in red letter. Again, to John Garvin, of Canadian Poets fame, that unwearying philanthropist to every one of us, genius or scribbler, a very personal feeling of kindness because of his tactful effort to find me work when I was poor and dejected.

My love had grown, but that it could not grow; It all-enveloped me, and one sweet kiss F rom her dear lips had made my bosom glow With happiness and many months of pain Had been as nothing, that one kiss to gain. And, when the many-tinted Autumn's reign Succeeded Summer's more congenial sway, I told her of the mingled joy and pain That stirred my soul throughout each Summer's day. And whispered, in emotion's softest tone, The love that I had feared before to own. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canadian Melodies and Miscellaneous Poems Oi some poor traveller with his load, Though tired and toiling far behind. The idea of Canadian melodies has been suggested to me by an ever present desire on my part to adapt a Canadian subject to a popular air. To make this more effective several of these pieces are written in the ordinary language, common to youthful Canadians. So far in this country our liter ature has but little in it to attract young minds. In one of those social usuages peculiar to all civilized nations we are ao cused of being singularly undemonstrative I refer to loyalty. This aspect of our char acter has been pressed home to us so per sistently as to lead some to believe that whatever virtues Canadians may possess, loyalty is apparently not one of them. Can ada' s national songs so far are not impres sive. As might be expected, they have not manifested themselves in those national out bursts of feeling for our country's glory.

Download or read book Raise the Flag and Other Patriotic Canadian Songs and Poems Classic Reprint written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Raise the Flag, and Other Patriotic Canadian Songs and Poems There is nothing so striking in Canadian poetry as the great change that has come over it during the last few years. The tone of confidence in our country, the blloyant faith in our great future, the deep feeling of loyalty to Canada and the Empire, that is shown in all the fugitive pieces of the last five years is most remarkable. Mr. Wm. D. Lighthall, to whose excellent collection of Songs of our Great Dominion, this work is indebt ed for several extracts, notices this fact in his introduction, but since he wrote, the change is even more marked. Still we notice the same dominant idea of fearing God and honoring the king. The piety of the later poems is as marked as the loyalty.

Download or read book Flowers from a Canadian Garden written by Lawrence Johnstone Burpee and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Flowers From a Canadian Garden: Selected and Edited This little collection is not the first, nor does it profess to be the most complete, anthology of Canadian poetry. Never theless, the compiler feels that it may claim a modest place of its own. It is confined to short lyrics - a limitation which has its disadvantages, but also its advantages. In the case of a few Canadian poets, it is not possible to give a just idea of their value in such a collection as this; but on the whole it is believed that, within its restricted limits, this anthology represents fairly enough the quality and character of Canadian poetry. The selection has been made with the utmost care, and includes the work of several new Canadian poets of promise, as well as verses from some of our early writers who deserve to be kept in remembrance.
