Summary "Dreams and Days: Poems" by George Parsons Lathrop is a collection of lyrical poetry written in the late 19th century. The themes of this work likely revolve around love, nature, mortality, and the passage of time, characterized by the exploration of human emotions and experiences through vivid imagery and eloquent language. At the start of the collection, the poem "Strike Hands, Young Men!" sets an encouraging tone, urging a sense of camaraderie and collective action against adversity and the inevitability of death. The speaker calls for solidarity and hopes for a brighter future, while acknowledging the uncertainties of life. Following this, various poems such as "O Jay!" and "The Star to Its Light" delve into the nuances of nature and personal reflection, portraying internal and external struggles alongside themes of love, longing, and realization. Throughout this opening portion, Lathrop establishes a strong connection between the beauty of the natural world and human experiences, inviting readers to ponder the deeper meanings behind their dreams and days.
