Many Voices: Poems

A quiet, reverent voice opens this collection with a tender dedication to a beloved daughter‑in‑law, setting a tone of intimacy that runs through the verses. The opening poem drifts through moonlit gardens and ancient yews, its images of shadows, owls and whispering wind weaving a gentle melancholy that feels both haunting and comforting. As the speaker walks a path between the living and the unseen, the language invites listeners to linger in the soft glow of memory and the stillness of night.

Later poems turn toward the bright, mischievous world of fairies, gnomes and angels, celebrating the sparkle of dew on lupine leaves and the simple magic hidden in blossoms and breezes. Nesbit’s verses balance the ethereal with the everyday, offering lyrical snapshots of wonder that feel as much a lullaby as a reflection. Listeners will find a tapestry of nature, myth and quiet yearning, perfect for moments when a gentle, imaginative escape is desired.
