Here are poets from the past and present, from Chaucer, Shakespeare, and Wordsworth to Whitman, Dickinson, and Thoreau. From Keats, Blake, and Hopkins to Elizabeth Bishop, Ted Hughes, and Amy Clampitt. Here are poems that speak of the seasons as measures of earthly time or as states of mind or as natural expressions of the unspoken. From Robert Frost's homage to fleeting spring in 'Nothing Gold Can Stay' to Langston Hughes's melancholic 'Summer Night' in Harlem; from the 'stilled woods' in Marie Ponsot's 'End of October' to the chilling 'mind of winter' in Wallace Stevens's 'The Snow Man,' the poems in this collection interact vividly with the seasons and, through them, with the ways in which we understand and interact with the world around us.
