Download or read book Spring Songs written by Poets Unite Worldwide and published by Poetry for the Four Seasons. This book was released on 2018-05-13 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These poems are an invitation to let go of the burdened self, and join our poets into the world of effervescent feelings. The perspective on Spring varies from one poem to another. Spring is intensively lived both as an individual experience, and also a collective one. Some poems focus on the harsh treatment people give the Earth, but the fact that Spring never fails to come back, chasing the long and cold winter away, reminds all human beings about the constancy of life and the ability of fulfilling its cyclical renewal. Feelings of relief and joy are abounding through the poems; clusters of snow melting here and there, the freshness of the air, the nature clad in velvet green, the bees and the animals, the birds' songs that animate the scenery, the scent of the flowers that blossom in this particular season, the sunshine that gently pats every life form. Life pulses through each pore. The balance between death and life is restored as the remnants of winter and its dark and gloomy days are replaced with a comforting light and an imperishable craving for cheerfulness, joie de vivre and optimism.In a poem, Spring is likened to a young, beautiful maiden who gracefully walks on the earth, dispersing the morose winter days, reinstalling happiness while nature comes back to life. In other poems, Spring is associated with the loved one, either present or projected in a fantasy world. The contemplation of Spring is regarded as an opportunity to assort the sentiments and the changes that take place in the outside world.Reading some of the poems, you can overcome the blurred line between reality and dreams..like a sudden, passionate dialogue between two lovers where the season becomes a reference point, being used in order to express one's love and tenderness; while others depict in vintage hues a story of longing, with an emphasis on the shattered heart and pleas for the lover's return that echo through the entire poem. There are also poems that remind the reader of one of the most beautiful and adventurous stages of life, namely the childhood. Other poems are focused on the role of words and language in recreating all these changes that occur in nature once this long awaited season is installed. Spring also becomes synonymous with tough life lessons, experienced in a Soviet gulag: a strong evocation of unyielding personal values such as dignity and strength to find hope in the most troubled times for an upcoming liberation.The poems that are included in this anthology are original, and each can be viewed as an ode or a tribute to one of the most spectacular seasons: the season of rebirth.

Frank O'Hara, a prominent figure in mid-20th century American poetry, drew inspiration from his background in art and his experiences as a curator at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. His keen observations of the urban landscape and his ability to imbue his poems with emotion and wit set him apart as a distinct voice in contemporary poetry. O'Hara's unique perspective and innovative approach to poetry continue to captivate readers today. I highly recommend FRANK O'HARA Ultimate Collection to anyone interested in exploring the works of a visionary poet whose impact on modern poetry continues to resonate.

With Zen Poetry, Lucien Stryk and Takashi Ikemoto have graced us with a compellingly beautiful collection, which in their translations is pure literary pleasure, illuminating the world vision to which these poems give permanent expression.
