The Truth of Seasons Laverne Frith

That the philosophies of Ralph Waldo Emerson have influenced this collection of poems is not in question. These urgent poems largely mirror the realities of patterns found in the natural world, while at the same time reflecting the value of self-reliance, as well as the transcendent values of inculcation and becoming, of being interrelated and alive in the seasons of one's world. These are poems of the spiritual path critically intersecting the natural world, poems that indicate how desperately at times one must seek individual and creative pathways to a synthesis of spiritual and natural truths.
