Rain and Roses, by Jeannette Fraser Henshall

This project is complete and all audio files can be found in the catalogue: https://librivox.org/rain-and-roses-by-jeannette-fraser-henshall/
One reviewer describes these poems as "dainty." Each reflects a delicacy of feeling and sentiment of home, love and nature. Jeannette Fraser Henshall is also author of an earlier volume of poetry, "Star Dust." (Summary by Larry Wilson)
Source text (please read only from this text!): https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/63373

Two poetry projects near completion, so getting another one underway.

Although the author is in the LibriVox database, I have searched high and low for information on her, but have come up empty except for her earlier book of poetry.

I will take on DPL for this volume

I've recorded two poems and put them in the MW Ready for PL.
If I could have a volunteer take a quick listen, I would be most grateful :)

Larry,

Very well done!

One small problem with the first one. The file is listed as Section 7 rather than Section 1.

Section 57 is PLOK :thumbs:
