Samenvatting:

Spring by tradition begins the renewal both of ourselves and of nature. The very sound of the word suggests impetus and movement and people do seem taken with the notion that the year’s journey is about to begin. The days become longer, warmer and the fresh green of new growth begins to show itself. All manner of life start to busy themselves with activities and plans. In this collection of poetry Wordsworth, Browning, Kipling & Yeats are familiar voices to which Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, Daniel Sheehan, Amy Lowell and Christina Rossetti and others bring their words of insight, charm and emotion. It’s a rich and rewarding combination. This collection is read for you by Ghizela Rowe and Richard Mitcheley. The track listing of the volume is:- SPRING - An Introduction, Spring - Gerard Manley Hopkins, Daffodils - William Wordsworth, Ode On The Spring - Thomas Gray, The Lent Lilly - A E Houseman, To A Primrose -
