Summary

"Take a literary stroll through the changing seasons with this absorbing collection of poems that celebrate nature -- one for every day of the year. Within these pages are Wordsworth's spring daffodils, Keats's 'mists and mellow fruitfulness, ' and a host of other fine poems old and new, from poets famous and obscure. Keep this book at your bedside and indulge in a daily moment of escape into the natural world"--Back cover
