Weeds by the Wall: Verses

A modest but vibrant anthology of early‑twentieth‑century verse invites listeners into a garden of quiet observation. The poet moves from the delicate sway of a wild iris by a stream to the bustling chatter of crickets and the solemn hoot of an owl, each piece a snapshot of season and feeling. Whether the tone is playful, as in the whimsical ranking of daisies and dandelions, or contemplative, as in the lingering echo of a twilight moth, the collection feels like a stroll through a beloved, overgrown garden, where even the weeds have their own quiet poetry.

The opening foreword sets the mood with an almost child‑like chant about choosing among flowers, then turns inward to hint at the bittersweet cost of preference and loss. This gentle self‑survey frames a series of poems that explore love, longing, and the small miracles of everyday nature. Listeners will find the verses both comforting and thought‑provoking, a perfect companion for moments of reflection.
