Sinossi

In 'New Hampshire, A Poem; with Notes and Grace Notes,' Robert Frost offers a meditative exploration of the natural landscapes and local character that define New Hampshire. Written with Frost's characteristic blend of colloquial grace and formal innovation, and infused with a sharp awareness of nature's dual capacity for beauty and brutality, the collection draws a vivid portrait of rural New England life. Through a tapestry of interlocked themes and motifs—whether musing on a star caught in a stone-boat or a brook's winter passage—the book unfolds with a narrative and philosophical cohesion, serving as both an anthology of individual lyrics and a unified pastoral rumination. This Pulitzer Prize-winning volume distinctly merges the poet's personal worldview with broader insights into human experience, set against the backdrop of the ever-changing New England seasons.
Robert Frost, one of America's most beloved poets, imbues 'New Hampshire' with the wisdom of a life richly lived, intimately connected to the land and community. Much of Frost's oeuvre is characterized by an intricate understanding of the rural American landscape, both as a source of existential metaphor and a space for contemplative solitude. A four-time Pulitzer Prize recipient, Frost's work in this collection is informed by his own experiences in the granite state, reflecting not only the topographical contours of New Hampshire but the inner contours of the human psyche. The reflective and often profound pulse of these poems echoes Frost's ongoing conversation with nature, mortality, and the complexities of the human condition, all the while rooted in the rugged and sometimes unforgiving landscapes around him.
This collection is an essential addition to the library of anyone who appreciates the power of poetry to illuminate the ordinary and the natural world. It is particularly recommended for readers who enjoy meditations on rustic life and the philosophical dimensions of everyday existence. Frost's 'New Hampshire' serves not only as a gateway to his larger body of work but as an enduring example of how poetry can encapsulate and enliven the spirit of a place, and serve as a timeless testament to the craft and quiet profundity of one of America's most revered poets.

Samadhi The Divine Light

Justin Wesenberg

Samadhi is a channeled poetry book about finding enlightenment, and awakening the world through the divine light of your soul.  
This poetry book is for those who are ready to rise as leaders of the new earth, and awaken the world. 
It's time to discover 
Your highest light 
As the stars illuminate 
The dark of the night 
And guide the way 
For those who explore 
It's time to open the gateway 
And unlock the door 
To a life of prosperity 
And inner bliss 
Your reality will change 
When you experience this 
No longer will you 
Limit your soul 
You will discover your essence 
And find you are whole 
Allow yourself to reunite 
With the light of the divine 
It's time to rise 
And let yourself shine 
This channeled poetry book was inspired by my search for enlightenment, and how yogis achieve this state in samadhi. 
If you’re ready to shine your divine light upon the world, Samadhi The Divine Light will be your lighthouse in the dark!

There Are Still Woods

Hila Ratzabi

There Are Still Woods is a radiant appraisal of life at the precipice of climate crisis and a haunting elegy for all we stand to lose. Through alternating lenses, from the speculative to the spiritual, from motherhood to science to mythology, Hila Ratzabi looks out at our wounded but vibrant planet and the animal experience of living on it. These poems bear witness to the force and fragility of the natural world and grapple with the complexities of being a human in that landscape: being implicated, vulnerable, humbled, dazzled. These poems are ways of framing and enduring loss, personal and collective and cultural, real and potential and anticipated. They impart a heightened appreciation for the solid and fleeting beauty that surrounds us. Here is an ode to the earth, a vision of its end, a celebration of its endurance, an aching and eloquent plea for intercession on its behalf. Ratzabi’s first collection is a howl, a prayer, a premonition, a reawakening, and an urgent call to action.
