"Embers, Complete" by Gilbert Parker is a poetic collection, likely written in the early 20th century. The work captures themes of love, memory, and nature through evocative verse, illustrating the beauty and complexities of human experience. The collection showcases various characters and sentiments, from reflections on lost love to the joys of youth, all presented with a lyrical quality that invites readers to delve into Parker's world. The opening of "Embers, Complete" introduces readers to a preface and a proem, setting a reflective and nostalgic tone. Parker expresses initial reluctance to publish the collection but is swayed by friends’ encouragement, indicating that these poems stem from personal memories and emotions. The proem features a dialogue with an angel about the value of memory, suggesting that the author considers personal experience and remembrance essential to the human condition. Following this, the poem "Rosleen" and several others unfold, weaving tales of love, loss, and longing, contributing to a rich tapestry that celebrates the poet's past while pondering the permanence of memory.
