England Over Seas
E-text prepared by Al Haines
"England Over Seas" by Lloyd Roberts is a collection of poems written during the early 20th century. This lyrical work explores various themes, primarily the connection between England and the natural world, reflecting a deep sense of longing for the countryside and its seasonal beauty. The poetry captures a vivid juxtaposition between rural life and the bustling urban environment, resonating with a nostalgic longing for simplicity and nature. The collection features a wide array of poems that delve into different aspects of nature, seasons, and human experiences. In pieces like "England's Fields," Roberts invokes the allure of English landscapes with rich imagery of greenery and flowers. Other poems, such as "The Homesteader" and "Husbands Over Seas," reflect on personal connections to England, the passage of time, and life’s simpler pleasures against the backdrop of nature.
