A charming collection of poems exploring the natural world of the author's locality. From the flowers in her own garden to the wildflowers on the fells she walks. The poems cover all weathers and seasons, drawing parallels between nature and the self. The author explores her own connections to the location and the importance of surrounding ourselves with nature. "These short poems were all written over the course of a year and relate to the flowers in my garden, the creatures that live alongside us, wildflowers and places that root us in the landscape. In some I give a nod to the language of flowers, in others, I observe the parallels with our own lives. The renewal of life in Spring and the transience of the flowers give us pause for thought on the fragility of being." Illustrated by the author.
