A kaleidoscopic collection of lyrical poems, this book invites listeners into the intimate moments of a poet’s heart across the turning of the seasons. From the tender organ‑like resonance of a lover’s sonnet to the hushed reverence of evening prayers, each piece captures a fleeting emotion with vivid, musical language. The verses wander through spring’s first buds, summer’s hopeful seedlings, and the quiet contemplation of heaven found in everyday spaces.
Interwoven with personal reflections and gentle dialogues, the poems explore love’s lingering echo, the yearning for youthful vigor, and the quiet strength of age. Their seasonal markers—November, April, August—anchor the reader in a rhythmic passage of time, while the poet’s reverent eye turns ordinary moments into timeless meditations. Listeners will find a soothing blend of nature, devotion, and quiet wonder that resonates long after the final line fades.

1862–1937
Raised inside New York’s elite world, she turned its rules, ambitions, and quiet cruelties into some of the sharpest fiction of her era. Her novels blend social detail with real emotional force, from glittering drawing rooms to the stark loneliness of rural New England.
