'Sleet' Summary
The Sleet is a collection of poems that showcase Nannie Rebecca Glass's skill in capturing the essence of nature through evocative language. The poems in this collection focus on the arrival of winter and its transformation of the natural world. Glass's poems are characterized by their lyrical quality and the depth of emotion they express. She uses vivid imagery to paint pictures of snow-covered landscapes, frozen streams, and the chilling wind that sweeps across the land.

Through her evocative verse, Glass invites readers to share her appreciation for the power and beauty of nature, even in its harshest forms.Book Details
