This delightful mini-anthology, however, is guaranteed never to wither. Roses, fritillaries, daisies, gentians and the humble ragwort are celebrated here by poets ranging from Mimi Khalvati to William Wordsworth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe experience their colours and scents in vivid language, so each lives on the page with all the intensity of a real flower. Sometimes it seems we can even learn from them; lilacs growing in an urban street know as much about love as we do:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Lilac, like love, makes no distinction. It will open for anyone. Even before love knows that it is love lilac knows it must blossom.” from ‘City Lilacs’ by Helen Dunmore\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one of the lovely mysteries of these poems – that a flower can somehow be like us and shed light on our own hopes and joys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelected and introduced by Katharine Towers.
