Summary "Poems of Nature, Poems Subjective and Reminiscent and Religious Poems, Complete" by John Greenleaf Whittier is a comprehensive collection of poetry likely written in the 19th century. This anthology encapsulates Whittier's deep appreciation for nature, human emotions, and spirituality, offering readers a rich tapestry of themes from the beauty of the natural world to reflections on personal and religious experiences. The opening portion of the collection introduces a series of nature-themed poems, beginning with "The Frost Spirit," which personifies winter's arrival. Whittier vividly describes the effects of frost upon the landscape, including trees, lakes, and streams, creating a somber yet magical ambiance. He moves on to contextualize this within New England settings in other pieces, such as "The Merrimac," capturing the tranquility of rivers and familial connections to the land. The poems evoke sensory experiences and philosophical musings on nature's seasons, revealing Whittier's profound relationship with the environment and its cycles.
