About This Book
A sequence of lyrical poems observes the shifting moods of landscape and season, from sunlit fields and coastal cliffs to windy uplands and marshes. The verses blend vivid natural imagery—poppies, bees, wind and rain—with reflections on travel, homesickness and the contrast between homeland and foreign shores. Rural life, harvests, fishing and small-town movement are sketched in compact, musical stanzas that emphasize sound and rhythm. The collection moves through spring, summer and winter, tracing both external weather and internal longing with a restrained, pastoral sensibility.
