| Summary |
"Cross Roads" by Margaret E. Sangster is a collection of poetry likely written during the early 20th century. The work consists of various verses that explore themes of love, nature, memory, and the human experience, blending personal reflection with broader societal observations. The opening of the book provides a glimpse into Sangster's poetic style and thematic focus. The preface sets a tone of warmth and nostalgia, where candlelight evokes a sense of comfort and intimacy, establishing a contrast between the simplicity of life and its complexities. In the subsequent poems, such as "Wood Magic" and "Waterin' the Horses," the imagery brings to life peaceful pastoral scenes, highlighting a yearning for the tranquility of nature in opposition to urban life's hustle and bustle. Throughout these verses, there are recurring motifs of love, longing, and the connection to the natural world, framing a narrative that resonates with personal and communal memories.
