Twelve Months
by George Ellis
'Twelve Months' Summary
George Ellis's *Twelve Months* is a charming collection of twelve poems, each dedicated to a particular month of the year. Ellis, a Victorian era poet, uses lyrical language to paint a vivid picture of the English countryside as it shifts through the seasons. In January, he describes the bleak beauty of a frozen landscape; by April, he celebrates the arrival of spring with its blossoming flowers and singing birds. Each poem captures the unique atmosphere of its month, from the quiet stillness of winter to the vibrant energy of summer. The poems are infused with a deep appreciation for nature, and they offer a sense of peace and wonder as we journey through the year alongside the poet. *Twelve Months* is a delightful and accessible read, perfect for anyone who enjoys the beauty of nature or appreciates a well-crafted poem.Book Details
