Excerpt from More Violets: A Child's Thoughts on Nature in Verse and Prose
These poems are offered to the public in the hope that those to whom the author is now a stranger may some day become her friends.
The above was the inscription on the Author's first book, violets. Its generous acceptance by the public and the kindly criticisms of the Press have emboldened her to hope that more violets will meet with the same kindness and be the means of bringing her many loving thoughts from her unknown friends; for there is an unseen bond of friendship between all true lovers of Nature.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book of poetry and essays is a labor of love by a young woman who grew up immersed in nature, and whose deepest joy was watching the changing moods of her surroundings. The author says, "How can they tell, how should they know, these little dwellers in the grain, the sun but sets to rise again, the leaves but fall that more may grow?" and she herself had a similar cyclical view of life and nature. This young woman's imagery is rich and lyrical, and her deep and loving observations of nature are not restricted to one season but flow freely through the year, resulting in a work that is as beautiful and varied as nature herself. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
