Par Excellence

...for Robert Frost Simple words, and simply said, uttered with such grace, the poet's token; nature's fables for the heart and soul so eloquently spoken. For animals and flowers humanity and love are manifest, echoing through his verses, renderings of an art put to the test. He speaks of lives in union, shared joys and sorrows all to each their part; and of how to toil alone: "As all must do", he said within his heart, "whether they work together or apart;" of things macabre and ghostly, conceived to send a shiver up your spine; of toil and tribulation out in the pasture, 'mid scrub oak and pine. A man of simple living, his poems and their meaning shall attest; a lyricist par excellence, may songbirds serenade him at his rest.
