Songs of the Silent World, and Other Poems

Songs of the Silent World, and Other Poems by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps is a collection of verses where love and loss echo through the silence of the soul. Penned by an American author of the late 1800s, it explores the deep waters of being, the ties that stretch past the edge of life, and the echoes of grief. Through vivid pictures painted with words, the poems capture longing's grasp and memories' solace. Stories like "The First Christmas Apart" and "Stronger than Death" share tales of pain when people are parted, yet whisper of the strength found in memories and the endless power of affection. These heartfelt glimpses into human experience draw readers to ponder the bonds of affection and the weight of sorrow in their own lives.
