Summary "Friends" by Wilfrid Wilson Gibson is a collection of poems written in the early 20th century, specifically during the time of World War I. This work encapsulates themes of friendship, loss, and the profound impact of war on human relationships and emotions. Gibson, known for his evocative and poignant verse, delves into the connections between individuals, drawing on the intimacy of friendships and the heartbreaking absence wrought by conflict. The poems in "Friends" evoke a deep sense of nostalgia and longing, as they pay tribute to those lost in the war, such as Rupert Brooke and William Denis Browne. The collection features a range of poetic forms and explores various facets of life, from serene domestic moments to the painful reality of separation and grief experienced by the speakers. The verses illustrate the beauty of friendship and love while simultaneously confronting the harsh losses suffered in wartime. Through vivid imagery and emotional depth, Gibson's work resonates with the reader, capturing the essence of human connection amidst the turmoil of the early 20th century.
