Hera Lindsay Bird
Paperback Edition: 1
This impressive debut has established Hera Lindsay Bird as a good girl with many beneficial thoughts and feelings with themes as varied as snow and tears, the poems in this collection shine with the fantastic cream of who she is juxtaposing many classical and modern
