Trees And Other Poems Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Voice From the Trees: And Other Poems Indeed as a rule it was only under the direct and immediate impact of nature that Frogley could write. Nearly everything that he cared to preserve was written out of doors. Hence he read chiefly in the winter and wrote in the summer half of the year; and he played with his camera as a means of preserving his impressions for the eye almost as affectionately as he did with the graving tool of verse that registered them on his mind. Two reproductions of his tree work are introduced into this volume. It is probably an effect of this dependence upon im mediate out-door contacts, coupled with the fact that Frogley was never physically robust, rather than any lack of sympathy with the wilder and more boisterous aspects of nature that limits the range of his nature poems. Speaking of writing in the open air, in a letter dated in the middle of March, he says: Of course it isn't possible yet, least of all in boisterous March; not but that the face of dear Nature is inspiring enough if one's body would put up with the temperature conditions.
