Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Exits From the Pearly Gates Part I. It was from contemplating the poems of Mrs. Lueretia Graves that I found the name for our book "Exits from the Pearly Gates" for surely her poems came from the other shore. Her education, that which is led from her, far surpasses her learning. If, perchance, her learning had been better, more tools with which to work, who can say what Exits might have passed her way. Her line of thought is instructive and will ever have a tendency to better mankind. Reader, when perusing her poems, seek to make them a part of yourself and thereby grow better. Part II. Many of my poems were written 50 years ago, some 25 to 30, others more recent and they seem to mark my evolution of soul as light came through upon my open windows. The history of my poems would make a large volume, and, to me, the history of our poems, national songs especially, is as dear as the poems themselves. In my poetical writings I have endeavored as much to bring out certain ideas that came to me as I have to cling to poetical laws and privileges. For Ex. in "In These Happy Golden Days" I sought to make it clear that all days are Happy Golden Days from expectant motherhood to old age. "In A Welcome to Spring" I bring out the signs of spring in "think," "see," "feel," "hear," "know." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
