Secondary Inspections, Carla Rachel Sameth's first full-length poetry collection, explores the life of the mother with loss and nuance as the book's central figure simultaneously deals with a son's addiction and a mother's dementia and death. These twin trials are approached in the context of a flawed and celebrated humanity that is authentic, rewarding, and difficult. The seasons of grief also look backward on the experience of recurrent miscarriages, shining a light on the vulnerability and potential for loss inherent from the moment motherhood is first contemplated. The exposure of coming undone is very real here, as the poems say, unmoored, unspooled, unpacked, but alongside it, Sameth never turns away from the continued sense of becoming. Located in Los Angeles and beyond, the culture of place and finding home along with themes of Jewish ancestry, identity, race, and queerness are also touchstones. Secondary Inspections invites us to take a second look at what we thought we knew and shows us how things are not always what they seem-identity can be questioned, provoke danger, and leave us impacted by how others see us; the bedrock of a family can be forever shifting and we too shift along with it. Through powerful narrative and vivid imagery, Sameth's poetry travels, searches, stumbles, and ultimately, returns. Even amidst heart-staggering moments, she reveals a rich cultural life that is both within, and that is further made possible by deeply being in the places you love with the people you love.

Building for the Butterfly is a collection of spontaneous poetic compositions that explore themes of uncertainty and crisis, the city and nature, with immediacy and degrees of objectivity. The language and diction are bound by determinate and indeterminate symbolism and idioms.Hughes writes rapidly and fiercely, often compounding layers and countervailing juxtapositions. The collection is a verse journal examining fear, anxiety, and confusion with veracity against a backdrop of sudden change, when the writer's child was suddenly hospitalised with an undiagnosed sickness. Inspired by Ted Hughes's Moortown Diary's search for a sense of place and a fleeting glimpse of a Red Admiral butterfly that flew by during a late summer Oslo rush hour commute, Building for the Butterfly is both a remarkably tender premonition and a raw and protective healing poultice intended to be applied by being read out loud. Enjoy its bold candour and waspish reflections.

Mohammad Reza Shafi'i-Kadkani is a contemporary Iranian poet, literary critic, editor, author, and translator born in 1939. His nature poetry, which comprise most of the poems in this book, are harbingers of hope. His wildflowers and birds anticipate the arrival of spring. His milkvetch contemplates its predicament but finds a way to convey its message through the breeze. His wintersweet outsmarts the drought; his mountain osier, pine and petunia are the songs of life; his rain cleanses the earth and purifies the words; his poppy is reckless, his sea fearless; his jasmines and sweetbriars are miraculous. Kadkani is at once a modern poet and a classical one, well versed in both traditions. His themes, language, and style are unique, fusing the old with the new, the classic with the modern.Mojdeh Bahar was born in 1973 in Iran to a family of poets and writers. Her parents emigrated to the U.S. when she was 14. Although she is a patent lawyer by profession, she continues her deep interest in Persian poetry. This is her first book of translations from one of her favorite contemporary Persian poets.

Parisesh is a bengali language poetry book written by Rabindranath Tagore. It was published in 1932.

It is here, in darkness, where the relativity of space and time becomes so apparent. It is here, where I feel my experiences and views can shed light on what happens in this world. My poems cover a wide variety of themes and were written in various periods of my life. They are traces of who I was, of what I encountered and of how I perceived my environment. My hope is that these poems leave traces behind for you, dear reader. Traces of value, at a certain point in your life. May these poems allow you to shine your light.

Can love poetry be the site of a creative partnership? When a poem is written by the male poet for the woman he loves, both addressed to her and taking her as its object, how does ¿ how can ¿ she interact with it?This book represents a foray into the love poetry of Jacques Roubaud, tracing a lifetime of writing from the ardour of first love to the pain of grief and loss. The author brings Roubaud¿s poetry into proximity with evolving views on the sexual relation from Freud, Lacan and Irigaray in readings that consider the ties between poet and lover, poet and reader. At the centre of it all is the poet¿s engagement with form: the free verse style of the Surrealists that was popular in his youth, the form-orientated writing he turns to as a response to his self-doubt as a writer, and the collapse of metre and rhythm when he mourns the death of his wife. Is form a device for the confinement of the feminine presence in his poems, or does Roubaud construct spaces in his poetry for his lover ¿ his other ¿ to be?

Fêtes Galantes & Songs Without Words are the 2nd and 4th books of poetry by French poet and author Paul Verlaine.Fêtes Galantes (Fêtes Galantes in French) was originally published in 1869. A common theme running through these poems is the scenes, characters, and props of French comedy, semi-civilized pastorals, and commedia dell¿arte, - figures like Harlequin, Colombine, Pierrot, Leandre, the Innamorati, etc., against natural backdrops and dreamy Watteau-like landscapes, with all the appurtenances that one might expect: mandolins, lutes, masques, moonlight, prettily-clad women, moss-covered benches... - interfused with the poet¿s feelings, melancholy, amorous longings, joys, and regrets.Songs Without Words (Romances sans paroles in French) was originally published in 1874. The common theme in these poems is the amorous and sentimental love lost, found, and lost again between the poet and his childhood female cousin, or his child wife, or his new-found friend and fellow poet Arthur Rimbaud against a backdrop of the Ardennes, the Belgian countryside, Brussels, and London. It includes perhaps Verlaine¿s most famous poem: "Il pleure dans mon c¿ur..."

The teacher assigns her fourth-grade students to write "poems as lovely as trees," and they go at it, these students whose aspirations are a display board at the county fair. Young Ron McFarland takes the subject to heart, and from his pencil unfurl leaves, sturdy branches, sunlight between the branches, possibly fruit and a wayward kite, and most certainly a nest in which birds burst with song. McFarland, in this and previous collections, goes far beyond trees. I see McFarland coloring the world, a sort of John Constable, beginning with trees and then with tenderness and art making it all come alive.- Gary Soto, author of New and Selected Poems, a National Book Award Finalist, and One Kind of FaithIf you were to sit down with Ron McFarland (kitchen counter, seminar table, barstool), you would soon understand that he knows a very great deal about a whole lot of things and can talk about any of them with savvy and erudition, mostly disguised as plain talk. The experience is not a whole lot different from reading A Variable Sense of Things, his latest book of poems. Sometimes wry, sometimes downright funny; sometimes elegiac, sad, or rueful, and always, always smart. They do not strain, these poems. They are wise. They mean exactly what they say, and more.- Robert Wrigley, author of Earthly Meditations: New and Selected Poems and The True Account of Myself As A BirdIntensely personal poems, studded with unexpected ironies like grace notes, which illuminate the depth below the surface.- Mary Clearman Blew, author of Think of Horses
