About this book

A bird calling through spring rain and a window crusted with frost become measures of the heart in Sara Teasdale's Love Songs. This collection brings together new lyrics and poems from her earlier volumes, arranging brief scenes of affection, longing and parting alongside reflections on beauty. "Barter" sets music, sea waves and pine scent among life's pleasures, while "A Winter Night" moves from a warm room to concern for people walking snowy streets.

The sequence "Songs out of Sorrow" gives singing a particular place in the collection. A wood thrush's few notes renew a speaker's attachment to life, and "Refuge" describes verse as shelter for the spirit. Elsewhere, dew, moonlight and the changing tide supply images for closeness and uncertainty. Readers can enjoy the poems as short, musical pieces while tracing how the same natural details take on different emotional meanings.
