EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Celia Thaxter: A Devoted Poet and Gardener of Appledore, New Hampshire Celia Thaxter (1835-1894), an American poet, is depicted in this photograph, her expressive eyes reflecting a deep connection to nature and the written word. Thaxter is best known for her volumes of verse, which include "Poems" (1872), "Driftweed" (1879), and "Poems for Children" (1884). Born in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Thaxter spent much of her life in Appledore Island, a small island in the Isles of Shoals off the New Hampshire coast. Her poetry was deeply influenced by her surroundings, with many of her works reflecting the beauty and simplicity of island life. Thaxter's poems often explored themes of nature, love, and the passage of time. Thaxter's "Poems" was her first collection, published when she was in her thirties. The volume received critical acclaim and established her reputation as a talented poet. In "Driftweed," her second collection, Thaxter continued to explore the natural world around her, drawing inspiration from the ebb and flow of the tides and the changing seasons. Her final collection, "Poems for Children," showcased her ability to write engaging verse for young readers. Thaxter's poetry has endured, continuing to captivate readers with its beauty and depth. Her connection to the land and her dedication to her craft are evident in every line. This photograph captures not only the face of a poet but also the soul of a woman deeply in love with the world around her.
