Calendar and Other Verses

by Irving Sydney Dix

This collection of poems by Irving Sydney Dix was written in 1913 as a testament to his love and appreciation for the arts. It features a range of works, including the titular "Calendar" series, exploring themes of nature, the passage of time, and the human condition. It also includes a poem titled "Fairies of the Frost" and a particularly poignant piece reflecting on the "Sinking of the Titanic," offering a glimpse into the public consciousness in the wake of that historic tragedy.
