These poems follow a course that began with the death of the author's eight-year-old brother when she was just six, and her endless longing for his return. It took a lifetime to be free of those yearnings. She did that through her writings and love of nature.

"Nature does not recognize our zoning laws. It does not respect the authority of the fence or the permanence of the asphalt." Eternal July is a moving collection of poems about nature and the resilient spirit of the urban wild. In a landscape often dominated by concrete and glass, these poems reveal the "insurgent life" thriving in the margins from the dandelion cracking the sidewalk to the fox reclaiming the night. This is more than just a standard book of poems about nature; it is a guide to seeing the world differently.

Diese neue Ausgabe des Buchs der Lieder kann ich dem überrheinischen Publikum nicht zuschicken, ohne sie mit freundlichsten Grüßen in ehrlichster Prosa zu begleiten. Ich weiß nicht, welches wunderliche Gefühl mich davon abhält, dergleichen Vorworte, wie es bei Gedichtsammlungen üblich ist, in schönen Rhythmen zu versifizieren. Seit einiger Zeit sträubt sich etwas in mir gegen alle gebundene Rede, und wie ich höre, regt sich bei manchen Zeitgenossen eine ähnliche Abneigung. Es will mich bedünken, als sei in schönen Versen allzu viel gelogen worden, und die Wahrheit scheue sich, in metrischen Gewanden zu erscheinen.

La vasta produzione è infatti pervasa dalla personalità schiva eppure dirompente che la contraddistinse: gli affetti, la natura, il pensiero ossessivo della morte e dell'abbandono ne sono protagonisti vivi, che Dickinson racconta con uno sguardo in apparenza semplice e ritirato, in realtà ricco di complessità. Nei suoi versi ritroviamo lo scorrere ciclico ma effimero delle stagioni, i fiori e soprattutto gli animali, in grado di risvegliare in lei la più variegata gamma dei sentimenti, dalla repulsione allo sgomento, dall'ironia all'incanto.

First published in 1855, when Whitman was 37, Leaves of Grass announced a new voice and style in American letters. It attempted to reach out to the common person with an optimistic epic that took the nation as its subject and encouraged readers to connect with nature and unite in a harmonious society where race and class are transcended.

Brought to you by Penguin. If you stop and look around you, you'll start to see. Tall marigolds darkening. A spring wind blowing. The woods awake with sound. On the wooden porch, your love smiling. Dew-wet red berries in a cup. On the hills, the beginnings of green, clover and grass to be...

The Story of the Universe was inspired by a very old idea—that the universe is one river and that galaxies, stars, planets, and people are all whirls and eddies in the universal flow, arising in the universe as naturally as whirls and eddies arise in a fast-flowing river. The universe arose once upon a time in a place that created time and space. It spread in darkness like an exploding black hole until there was light. It was pure energy in pure symmetry—almost.

One of the great innovators in American letters, Walt Whitman created a daringly new kind of poetry that became a major force in world literature. Leaves of Grass is his masterpiece, written in a pure, uninhibited style, combining sensual and mystical sensibilities. Its bold, joyous voice, its expansive optimism, and its transcendental vision made it uniquely American.

Progress : Is a Precious Stone. Something the world seeks, just as much as Gold, or precious gems. This is a short, no nonsense poem that gets to the heart of what it wants to say, and points the way.

This poetry collection unfolds like a transformation, me, the narrator, being the figurative Old Monarch. Documenting this journey, the book is separated into three sections, “Sonoran Milkweed,” “Longing In Flight,” and “Eucalyptus Tree (My Arrival to Rest)." In the first stage of my journey, I explore my childhood in Arizona, and the naive assumptions of youth. In the second stage, I have left home. I am falling in love for the first time, as I become a young woman. Finally, the last stage is the old monarch’s arrival to the garden.

Was will er denn nur, der Rabe, der sich auf dem Kaminsims des einsamen Mannes niederlässt? Warum sagt er nur das eine Wort: "Nimmermehr?" Eines der bekanntesten Gedichte der Schauerromantik.

The Mountain Calls is both a story and a powerful manifestation tool. Told one poem at a time, it is a tale of the discovery and pursuit of a man's higher purpose and a road map for the listener as you ascend a mountain of adversity and pitfalls with your own life's goals in mind, collecting as you climb the courage, strength and clarity to overcome every obstacle in your path.

Take Five is a powerful invitation to pause and rise. These poems confront life’s uphill battles and elephant-sized troubles with unflinching courage, while reflecting on the quiet strength found in prayer, meditation, and love. Through vivid imagery of forests, storms, and the lotus blooming in mud, the collection inspires readers to see resilience not as survival alone, but as transformation. Each verse is both a rallying cry and a moment of stillness—a reminder that the heart remembers how to endure, and how to rise again.
