"Rosemary and Pansies" by Effie Waller Smith is a collection of poetic works published in the early 20th century. This book unfolds a tapestry of themes revolving around love, death, and reflections on life, capturing the essence of human experience in lyrical form. The poems are infused with emotional depth and address varying facets of existence, from the sorrow of loss to the joy of hope. The collection weaves together diverse thoughts and feelings through individual poems, each encapsulating distinct experiences and observations. For example, the opening poem reflects on forgotten graves, evoking a sense of nostalgia and love that transcends death. In other pieces, such as "A New Year's Hope" and "Ghosts," Smith contemplates the passage of time and the haunting nature of past choices. Themes of mortality appear throughout, as in "To a Dead Baby," portraying the deep sorrow tied to lost potential, while poems like "Trust" express a yearning for divine comfort. Overall, "Rosemary and Pansies" resonates with readers through its poignant exploration of life's transient beauty and enduring connections. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
