Publisher's Summary:

Man's best friend. An always faithful ally.Whether the dog is domesticated as a pet and there to enjoy life with a family or as a work-dog herding sheep, helping to hunt, police or guard, the dog has proved time and time again to have many invaluable uses. They come in all shapes and sizes from sought after breeds to lowly mongrels each with an array of qualities that give them distinct personalities. From earliest times dogs have been able to find a unique place fulfilling the needs of their keepers and often there is equal devotion from master to servant. A dog's life no longer has to have negative connotations as so many pooches are loved, extravagantly fed, groomed, petted and pawed over, all perhaps more than our fellow man. Dogs were even worshipped as deities in Mesopotamian times and across several cultures and civilisations including Hindu, Chinese and Greek, they are the helpers, the watchers or guardians of sacred or sensitive sites. Between then and now poets have written verse, both serious and humorous, in attempts to keep a poetic track both of feelings and as a tribute to our four-legged friends and their adventures.1 - The Poetry of Dogs - An Introduction2 - A Friendly Welcome by Lord Byron3 - A Popular Personage At Home by Thomas Hardy4 - The Power of the Dog by Rudyard Kiping5 - Verse for a Certain Dog by Dorothy Parker6 - The Best Friend by Meribah Abbott7 - The Joy of a Dog by Edgar Albert Guest8 - Dog by Harold Munro9 - My Comforter by Anonymous10 - Four Feet.

Title: 50 Shades of Mothers

Author: Kelly O'doherty, Tim Graham, Ghizela Rowe

Narrator: Frances E W Harper, D H Lawrence, Christina Georgina Rossetti, D.H. Lawrence

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 1 hour 25 minutes

Release date: February 1, 2021

Genres: Poetry

Publisher's Summary:

There is one universal word which all babies instinctively sound in every language and that is 'mama'. It produces a bond the like of which there is no other.Women are hard-wired by Nature to nurture and raise. Along the human chain of generations we would wish that every infant has depended on this woman, found shelter within her arms, food within her breast and the confidence to experience life and all its wonders from her love.Whether we understand it or recognise it, it is women who have shaped the course and journey of humanity.It is true, that mothering, the maternal instinct, comes in all shapes and shades and sizes. Some women find it difficult and others easy. Society with its norms and ever-readiness to make all conform, places pressures and difficulties in the paths of many. Families may not all be harbours of milk and honey but in this volume we take a different view. Here we journey with our classic poets from Christina Georgina Rossetti and Thomas Hardy to Frances W Harper and Kipling, not only the ways, the wonders and the women who take on the responsibility to raise children no matter the problems or dangers to themselves, but also the difficulties and sometimes desperate tragedies that motherhood can involve. We hope these poems inspire every generation to reach out and better themselves and those around. This is our tribute to mothers everywhere.1 - 50 Shades of Mothers - An Introduction2 - The Bravest Battle by Joaquin Miller3 - The Hand That Rocks The Cradle by William Ross Wallace4 - Mama's Mama by Anonymous5 - Sonnets Are Full of Love by Christina Rossetti6 - Mother O' Mine by Rudyard Kipling7 - My Mother by Ann Taylor8 - My Mother Dear by Samuel Lover9 - To My Mother by Christina Georgina Rossetti10 - My Mother by Francis Ledwidge11 - To My Mother by Lucretia Maria Davidson12 - Shall We Not Love Thee Mother Dear by Henry Williams Baker13 - Mother's Eyes by Mary D B Hull14 - My Mother's Hands by Anonymous15 - I Am Your Mother by Daniel Sheehan16 - The Bedtime Kiss by Anonymous17 - To A Little Invisible Being by Anna Laetitia Barbauld18 - Infant Sorrow by William Blake19 - Babies Don't Keep - Anonymous20 - Songs From Prince Lucifer II.

Publisher's Summary:

It comes as no surprise to the average Welsh person that their culture continues to thrive despite centuries of seeming servitude to the English. Wales, exemplified by the symbol of the Welsh dragon, is a small proud nation of many talents, large imaginations and even bigger hearts.Saint David's Day, or the Feast of Saint David falls on the 1st March each year on the anniversary of his death in 589 AD. The feast has been regularly celebrated since his canonisation in the 12th century.Traditional festivities include wearing the symbols of Wales and St David; daffodils and leeks, eating the National dish of cawl, a thick heartwarming soup, as well as the classic Welsh rarebit, and parades throughout the day featuring the traditional dress.The pride in its culture and history is keenly felt and in this volume the poets of Wales through the ages bring verse that fortifies and uplifts the soul of a nation and its much admired literary merits. 1 - St David's Day - A Holiday in Verse - An Introduction2 - Grongar Hill by John Dyer3 - Home, Fair Was The Morning Fair Our Tempers by Edward Thomas4 - The Waterfall by Henry Vaughan5 - Sweet Empty Sky of June by Henry Vaughan6 - from Chepstow - A Poem - Tinturn Abbey by Edward Davies7 - The Grey Steed by Gwerfyl Mechain8 - The Fox by Robert Williams Parry9 - On a Mountain Tumulus by Dafydd ap Gwilym10 - Llyn Y Gadair by T H Parry-Williams11 - Plynlimmon by Lewis Glyn Cothi12 - The Kingfisher by W H Davies13 - In May by William Henry Davies14 - Cock Crow by Edward Thomas15 - All Day It Has Rained by Alun Lewis16 - from Education In Wales by Rowland Williams17 - Here's the Life I've Sigh'd For Long by Iolo Goch18 - The Depression by David Gwenalt-Jones19 - The Wind's Lament by John Morris-Jones20 - In Praise of Wales by Talhaiarn21 - Praise of a Girl by Huw Morus22 - A Fleeting Passion by William Henry Davies23 - Song of the Worker's Wife by Alice Gray Jones24 - from The Happy Farmer by Iolo Morganwg25 - Miners by Wilfred Owen26 - This Poor Man by William John Gruffydd27 - Old Man by Edward Thomas28 - Wondrous Sight For Men by Ann Griffiths29 - Has Your Soul Sipped by Wilfred Owen30 - Faith by George Herbert31 - Apologia Pro Poemate Meo by Wilfred Owen32 - Exposure by Wilfred Owen33 - War by Hedd Wyn34 - There's An Open Door by Ann Griffiths35 - The Immovable Covenant by Hugh Derfel36 - The Black Spot by Hedd Wyn37 - Expecting The Lord by Ann Griffiths38 - Church Monuments by George Herbert39 - A Flower Sunday Lullaby by Eiffion Wynn40 - Virtue by George Herbert41 - Hymn XLI by William Williams Pantycelyn42 - Song to Mead by Taliesin43 - The Owl Disturbs the Bard's Sleep by Dafydd ap Gwilym44 - The Perishing World.
