Autumn Music (häftad, eng)

Autumn Music is a selection of Stephen Smith’s verse written during the past twenty years. The author has, on the whole, kept the rhyme and meter simple, but has also tried to add just enough variety to avoid any monotony. Whether or not he has succeeded is for the reader to decide.

The titles of the eight sections into which this collection is divided are intended simply as rough guides to content and mood and are not intended to indicate any disparity of subject matter.

The content and themes of the poems are the traditional ones – love, life, landscape, and the brevity of existence

The poetry is always best read with music in mind.
