by Dora Sigerson Shorter

This collection of poems by Dora Sigerson Shorter explores themes of Irish mythology, nature, and the human experience.

The poems often feature mythical creatures, such as fairies, and explore themes of love, loss, and the search for meaning in life. While deeply rooted in Irish culture and folklore, the poems also speak to universal human emotions and experiences.
