Winter (Stevenson)

by Robert Louis Stevenson

Winter by Robert Louis Stevenson is a collection of short poems exploring the beauty, desolation, and introspective qualities of the winter season. Stevenson's evocative language paints vivid imagery of snow, ice, fireside warmth, and the natural world's slumber. These poems offer a reflection on the passing of time, the contrast between the harshness of winter and the comforting embrace of hearth and home, and the human experience of solitude and connection in the face of nature's power.
