The Essence of Nature
About this ebook
Readers can be told about these things, but when the words spring naively from relatively untutored feeling they can share the essence of them, deepening their appreciation of nature. Yet increasingly, this natural instinct is being lost in our rush to adapt to the world we live in.
The Essence of Nature is a collection of poems ranging widely over many aspects of nature: landscapes of town and industry, country and sea, weather, animals, and people in a variety of situations and their effect on the author’s feelings and mood.
