The Spring's Autumn: Poems

By Adam J. Sedia

This is the first volume of poetry by Indiana poet Adam Sedia. It includes thirty-four lyric poems, mostly written in classical style, utilizing rhyme and meter. Among the forms the poems follow are pantoum, rondeau, sonnet, and villanelle. The poems meditate on subjects from nature and everyday human experience, and thereby address themes of contrast, duality, mortality, and order versus chaos. The mood of the poems varies from somber ("The Death of the Leviathan") to jocular ("Trophy Wife") to contemplative ("'To you who look not upward'"). Contains a foreword by Nathan M. Dodge.
