Poetry - Last Words - Flame Tree Publishing

This collection combines verses that signify the final moments of life, the transition from one stage to another. In times of sorrow, we often seek the right words to say, words that help us come to terms with death, loss, and the fear of what lies ahead. The poems and readings in this collection gather beautiful, lyrical, insightful writings on death, mourning, and healing by poets including Christina Rossetti, John Donne, Emily Dickinson, and John Keats. A source of comfort, solace, and resilience.

The unique titles and a very wide range of authors are a hallmark of Flame Tree Publishing.
