Tree Poghams:

Poems inspired by the wisdom of the Ancient Ogham Tree Alphabet

By Edward Durand

Poems inspired by the wisdom of the ancient Irish Ogham tree alphabet. Ogham is the ancient alphabet of the Druids. Each letter is a tree and each tree contains much lore and wisdom, mythology, magic and medicine. I put that tree lore into rhyme and rhythm just as the ancient Druids preserved their knowledge such as laws orally by putting them into rhyme and rhythm in the form of poetry so that they could be memorised. The ancient bards found deep wisdom in nature and communicated it in magical poems. This book keeps that lore alive with poetry that works on the deepest levels, delving into the magic, medicine and inspiration of our standing still friends. The trees were revered by the Druids as conscious beings that had the knowledge, materials and cures they needed. Each tree has a unique energy which can bring particular blessings.

Morte D'Arthur

And The Masque of Gwendolen

The unfinished Arthurian epic poems of Reginald Heber

The legend of King Arthur has more than any other captured the imagination of the Western world. This new take by a writer from the Romantic period gives an almost classical insight with a poetic phraseology. Not to be confused with Le Morte D’Arthur by Thomas Malory, Reginald Heber’s Morte d’Arthur paints an intriguing picture of the world of Arthur, Merlin and Guinevere (here referred to as Ganora), with an exciting new take.

Arthurian themes are further developed in Heber’s play in verse ‘The Masque of Gwendolen’. The fragment of a play is based on Chaucer’s ‘Wife of Bath’s Tale’ from The Canterbury Tales. However it is brought to life instead by the characters of Titania (fairy queen) and her fairies, and Merlin and Gawain, a new spin on an old plot twist. The release of this book commemorates the 200th anniversary of the passing of Reginald Heber.
