Dark of the Moon

"Dark of the Moon," first published in 1926, is a collection of 92 poems divided into nine sections that capture Sara Teasdale’s deep appreciation for nature and her desire for love and connection. The poems often evoke specific places and themes, particularly autumn, reflecting both the beauty of the natural world and her personal reflections on time, love, and memory. Through vivid imagery and emotional depth, Teasdale invites readers to explore the joys and longings of life.
