Download or read book One Red Rose written by Alma Reasor and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After Alma passed away in 1996, we all (her eight children) wanted a copy of her poems. So we took the hand written poems and typed them one by one, then we photocopied them and put them in a binder for all in the family to see. In 2009 we felt we wanted something that would stand the test of time, so we decided we would publish them in a book. We divided them into categories, took up some money and added illustrations. That took forever but here we are! Alma's first poem was written in 1938 about her family. Then in 1941 she began writing them to her soon to be husband, Gerald Lester Reasor, while he was stationed in Columbia, South Carolina. There are some poems about love, poems written to help her children in English class, and some silly poems about nothing in particular, but most of the poems are about people she knew and loved. She wrote a lot in the early morning hours waiting for her children to return home on Friday and Saturday nights. She also wrote some religious poems for Vacation Bible School. She was very active in the church. In 1990, Gerald, the love of her life passed away. The last poems that Alma wrote were about him.

Book excerpt: In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.

Download or read book The Journals of Sylvia Plath written by Sylvia Plath and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2013-01-16 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The electrifying diaries that are essential reading for anyone moved and fascinated by the life and work of one of America's most acclaimed poets. Sylvia Plath began keeping a diary as a young child. By the time she was at Smith College, when this book begins, she had settled into a nearly daily routine with her journal, which was also a sourcebook for her writing. Plath once called her journal her “Sargasso,” her repository of imagination, “a litany of dreams, directives, and imperatives,” and in fact these pages contain the germs of most of her work. Plath’s ambitions as a writer were urgent and ultimately all-consuming, requiring of her a heat, a fantastic chaos, even a violence that burned straight through her. The intensity of this struggle is rendered in her journal with an unsparing clarity, revealing both the frequent desperation of her situation and the bravery with which she faced down her demons.
