Publisher's Synopsis
Wild-Flower Sonnets is a collection of 50 sonnets written by Emily Shaw Forman and published in 1895. The sonnets are inspired by the beauty and fragility of wildflowers and explore themes of love, loss, and the passing of time. The collection is divided into four sections, each named after a different season: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. The sonnets are written in traditional Shakespearean form, with 14 lines and a rhyme scheme of ABAB CDCD EFEF GG. Forman's language is lyrical and evocative, capturing the essence of each wildflower and the emotions they inspire. The collection is a celebration of the natural world and a meditation on the human condition, offering readers a glimpse into the beauty and complexity of both.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
