Description

The Meanest Flower is a collection of songlike poetry that draws inspiration from various literary traditions. The poems, which can grow anywhere, are based on traditional forms and also feature the ancient Persian Ghazal.

These short poems aim to reinstate the joyful audible aspect of lyric poetry, reminiscent of Shakespeare's songs, Emily Dickinson's concise verse, and Wordsworth's Lucy poems. With its unique blend of form and style, this collection is a refreshing take on the traditional poetic forms.

The result is a collection that celebrates the beauty of language and the power of poetry to evoke emotions and connections.
