'Spring Harvest' Summary
'Spring Harvest' is a collection of poems written by Geoffrey Bache Smith, a young British poet who tragically died in World War I. The poems explore a range of themes, including nature, love, loss, and the horrors of war. Smith's poems are often marked by a deep sensitivity to the natural world, a passionate yearning for love, and a profound understanding of the fragility of human life. The collection features poems like 'The Wood', where Smith reflects on the beauty and peace of nature, and 'The Garden', where he contemplates the cyclical nature of life and death. Other poems address the anxieties and hardships of war, such as 'The Trench' and 'The Night Before the Battle'. While the collection is imbued with a sense of loss and grief, it also celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring power of love. 'Spring Harvest' stands as a powerful testament to Smith's poetic talent and the enduring impact of his tragic fate.Book Details
