Rose Hips - A Poetry Collection By Jessica Highstreet
Rose Hips is a nostalgia-bomb portrait of Home- as it exists in place, in ourselves, and within the ones we love. This collection acknowledges life's universal struggles and eases them with messages of hope and acceptance. Jessica Highstreet's debut poetry collection will resonate with anyone who has experienced growth through hardship.
Rose Hips n. - The small berry-like fruit of a rose bush, especially the wild kind.
From seed to bud
Opening and flowering
Wilting and shedding petals
The rose dies
So that the fruit may grow

They all kind of look the same, but the first section of "Your Soul is a River" is called cosmos.
This one was done with oil pastels instead of colored pencils.
I don't know is there an edition with every version of every poem (it'd have to be a hefty enough book)- but a good way to start off with Whitman is to get a copy of the 1855 Leaves of Grass (this one is good, unless you're actually some kinda poetry-loving millionaire, in which case you can just splurge on a real first edition.). After that, most "Collected Poems of...." books are based on the Deathbed edition, so any one of them will do. I think for a lot of his poems, the changes he made from book to book were minor enough, even though they do build up- especially in eg. Song of Myself (edited for about 30 years or something). But looking at the bookends gives you a good idea of how his writing changed overall, even if you don't see everything in between.
I'll be interested in seeing the facebook page. Pls share link if possible. My ebook is available on http://www.amazon.com/dp/B016S9XHE2 for free download till 12/05/2015. You may like to have a look. It consists of short /micro poems about nature and life.
