Produced by Al Haines
"Spun-yarn and Spindrift" by Norah M. Holland is a collection of poetry written during the early 20th century. The book features a variety of evocative themes centered around nature, love, longing, and loss, often reflecting on the emotional landscape of its time, particularly in relation to Ireland and its cultural identity. The poems embody a lyrical quality that captures the beauty and sorrow of the human experience, intertwined with elements of folklore and personal reminiscence. Throughout the collection, Holland showcases her deep connection to place and memory, frequently drawing inspiration from the Irish landscape and traditions. The poems explore various subjects, including love for one's homeland, the pain of separation, and the nostalgic yearning for simpler times. Each piece tells a story—whether it’s of an unforgotten love, the impact of nature on the human spirit, or the longing for lost friends—culminating in rich imagery and emotional resonance. The poems serve both as a tribute to the beauty of life and an acknowledgment of its transience, inviting the reader to reflect on their own experiences of love and loss.
