Sonnets of the Christmas Season

In traditional sonnet form, Burt Porter's poems celebrate the Christmas season with observations of people and nature. They describe in lush detail the quiet doings of the animals, the play of children in new fallen snow, the heightened awareness of the passing of time by grownups, and the busy work of preparation for the winter months shared by all. Written for friends and family to mark the holidays over many years, Sonnets of the Christmas Season exudes a sense of well-being and oneness with nature as it is rediscovered every year at this time of hope and anticipation.
