Dreams and Voices: Songs of Mother, Father and Child, from the Writings of American and English Poets of To-Day (Classic Reprint) by Grace Hyde Trine (Paperback / softback, 2015)
Excerpt from Dreams and Voices: Songs of Mother, Father and Child, From the Writings of American and English Poets of to-Day The theme of mother and child has been celebrated through the ages in sculpture, painting and poetry, and while many modern poets are seeking far and wide for themes that are new, the true and deep emotions of the human heart continue to find expression, even in the writings of many of the new poets themselves. It is the aim in this little collection to present some of the best poems on the mother and child relationship written in recent years, t forgetting to include several that deal also with the love of father and child. May the book cheer the mothers of the future, and those whose children still surround them, and those to whom a child is a living memory; in brief, may it bring a greeting to every mother.
