Description

A beautiful collection of poems to nourish, inspire and change the women who read them. This transformative collection of poems by female poets through the ages sing to us across the centuries.

These poems span the worlds of desire, love and friendship, of responsibility, hardship and care, of family and friends and lovers.

Their words empower us with strength and courage, fill us with verve and spirit, and inspire creativity and imagination. Contemporary voices of Fiona Benson and Jane Yeh join the evocative imagery of Christina Rossetti, Anna Akhmatova and Emily Dickinson.

Even the haunting voices of ancient Sappho, Venmaniputti and Li Qingzhao touch today's generation.

Here are poems written by women, with women's lives in mind.

As Gertrude Stein writes, 'such a sweet singing' is in the poetry that comes to us clear and lovely from out of the dark.

Read these poems aloud. Remember them. Share them.
