The collection features fifteen poems that showcase Herbert Morris's mastery of dramatic monologue and meditative reverie. Notable subjects include Lillian Gish's striking apricot gown, a touching detail from Caravaggio's work, and various interpretations of Edward Hicks's Peaceable Kingdom. Morris's use of blank verse, celebrated in American poetry, reaches new heights, offering readers a blend of emotional depth and artistic reflection.
