- Summary:
- Poems, in both English translation and the original Spanish, deal with fate, nature, language, intimacy, love, friendship, and the senses.

Included are the complete texts of Days and Occasions, Solo for Two Voices, A Drift of Shadows, East Slope, Toward the Beginning, and more; plus Paz's most recent collection, A Tree Within.
