(Frederick Simpson) The Voyageur and Other Poems Reading ease score: 72.7 (7th grade). Fairly easy to read. Produced by Al Haines "The Voyageur and Other Poems" by William Henry Drummond is a collection of poems written in the early 20th century. The poems celebrate the life and culture of Canadian voyageurs, using rich imagery and playful dialect to evoke their experiences and the natural beauty surrounding them. The collection likely includes both nostalgic reflections on the past and insights into the struggles and joys of these individuals. The opening of the collection introduces a poem titled "The Voyageur," where the speaker raises a glass to honor the famed voyageurs. It describes a scene filled with warmth from the fire and camaraderie among friends as they reminisce about the home and the people they have left behind, particularly evoking the memories of those who have journeyed far and perhaps are no longer around. It captures the spirit of celebration and remembrance, setting a tone that will resonate throughout the other pieces in the collection, which similarly explore themes of nature, relationships, and the challenges of life in a vivid, engaging manner.
