Little People
by Victor Daley
'Little People' Summary
The poems in 'Little People' transport the reader to a world of enchantment and wonder, where fairies dance in moonlit glades and magical creatures inhabit the forests. Daley's use of vivid imagery and evocative language creates a world where the ordinary becomes extraordinary. Through his poetic lens, we see the world anew, with a childlike sense of awe and fascination. The collection is divided into various sections, each exploring a different aspect of nature or the human experience. In 'The Little People,' we encounter a group of fairies who live in the forest and their playful interactions with a young boy. The poem 'At Dawn and Dusk' captures the beauty and mystery of the natural world, as the sun rises and sets each day. Other poems delve into themes of love, loss, and the passage of time, reminding us of the ephemeral nature of life and the importance of cherishing the present moment. Throughout the collection, Daley's voice is both lyrical and heartfelt, evoking a sense of yearning and longing for the simple joys and wonders of childhood.Book Details
