Sinossi

Poems on Trees is a heartfelt collection celebrating the beauty, strength, and significance of trees in both nature and human life. From towering oaks to fragile cherry blossoms, the poems explore how trees have inspired poets across generations. Each piece brings to life the forests, orchards, and groves where trees stand as silent witnesses to time and change. These poems reflect not only on the physical grandeur of trees—from deep roots to reaching branches—but also on their symbolic meanings of growth, renewal, and resilience. Through lyrical language and vivid imagery, readers are invited to reflect on their own connections to nature. The collection also serves as a reminder of the urgent need to protect our environment and cherish the trees that give us air, shelter, and beauty. It is a poetic tribute that blends wonder with advocacy, aiming to spark appreciation and action toward preserving the world’s green giants.

Victory

Fimalia McNoll

There was a time when I was falling, 
My enemies surrounded me. 
I was wounded and weary. 
I felt so weak unable to fight anymore. 
My eyes were dark and, 
my strength was almost gone. 
I prayed and cried out to God; I felt forsaken. 
I was hurt and felt abandoned. 
Then I reminded myself of his words 
that he will never leave me. 
I cried with my whole heart, 
He heard me and save me from my enemies.

Euripides

'She's chucked out like an old coat that nae langer fits him…'
Medea and Jason, clinging together as refugees in Corinth, have struggled to bring up their beloved offspring in this alien and unsympathetic society. Now Jason has a plan to better integrate himself. Unfortunately, this involves abandoning his wife, the mother of his children…

Poetry of Night The - Volume 1 -...

D. H. Lawrence, Robert Louis...

Night.  The day has gone. Departed.  And the dark embrace, the inky shadows of night descend. For many a time to unwind and slumber. For some a nagging doubt that all is not well.  That some primeval and primordial happening may yet go bump in the night. 
But for our poets the night is a time of wonder and imagination as well as many other emotions and feelings.  Among our ranks of gloried talents are Keats, Coleridge, William Morris, DH Lawrence, Whitman, Longfellow and many more besides.  Their descriptions capture what they see and feel as perhaps only a poet can. 
Among our ranks of gloried talents are Thomas Hood, Gerard Manley Hopkins, Robert Louis Stevenson, John Clare, Herman Melville and many more besides.  Their descriptions capture what they see and feel as perhaps only a poet can. 
This volume comes to you from Portable Poetry, a specialized imprint from Deadtree Publishing.  Our range is large and growing and covers single poets, themes, and many compilations.

Incantations For Rest - Poems...

Atena O. Danner

A call to anyone who thought they were alone on the journey, Incantations for Rest is for kindred spirits: neurodivergent folks, parents up late past bedtime nursing resentment, Black people in predominantly white spaces—anyone who has found themselves at the edges of Beloved Community. 
 
Incantations for Rest is an invitation to slow down and explore every kind of rest, providing sacred space for those exhausted by the demands of a racist, ableist society. This stunning collection of poems, meditations, and magic by poet-activist Atena O. Danner is an examination of spiritual spaces, a love letter to Black well-being, and medicine for BIPOC people. Within these pages you are invited to savor connection, question assumptions, admit to complicated feelings, and still make room for joy. It is a beacon of affirmation and a vital tool for ritual and reflection.
