'I sometimes think my heaven may be a green place, with an orchard tree' Elizabeth Waterhouse Trees are all around us, taken for granted, marking the seasons, and forming the backdrop to our daily lives. Who hasn't got a favourite tree? Who hasn't planted a tree? Climbed a tree? Sat in the shade of a tree? Who hasn't walked happily through a wood?
‘The wonder is that we can see these trees and not wonder more’ Ralph Waldo Emerson Here are poems about trees, woods and orchards that reflect that wonder. A wonder that we feel and want to share. If you love trees, this is for you. Treelines: A collection of poems
Selected by Janie Hextall and Barbara McNaught Published: 2018 ISBN: 9780956826534 Price: £10 (Free Postage) ALSO AVAILABLE
'A jewel of a poetry collection’ (Oxford Times) ‘its seductive sparkle’ (Tatler) While having fun with Washing Lines: A collection of poems, Barbara and Janie discovered they have many other things in common, including an interest in all things precious, semi-precious and sparkly. This is a book of poems inspired by the seductive sparkle of jewels and jewellery, and the emotions they arouse and represent.
Every culture since time immemorial has understood the importance of jewellery, whether plain or precious, so this book of ‘pearls’ is not only for poetry lovers but also for anyone who has ever treasured a piece of jewellery. Strings of Pearls: A collection of poems
Selected by Janie Hextall and Barbara McNaught Published: September 2013 ISBN: 9780956826510 Price: £10 (Free postage) |
