Viva's Poems

Length1h 38m

About this audiobook

The collected verse of Viva Alice Dodge Whitney (1905–2003) — ninety-two poems of traditional rhyming verse written across a Vermont lifetime. Gathered in four sections — Words; What Means "Love"; An Invalid's Plea; and Tribute — her poems move through love and loss, snowstorms and seasons, gardens, faith, and family, with the plainspoken grace of a voice from another era. Compiled and published by her grandson, this collection preserves her work for a new generation of listeners. This audiobook features digital voice narration. "A Note from Her Grandson" is written and voiced by Tim Whitney. A companion to the Whitney Genealogy by Fred Farnham Whitney. Runtime: 1 hour 38 minutes.
