Summary "Songs for Parents" by John Chipman Farrar is a collection of poems likely written in the early to mid-20th century. This book presents whimsical and playful verses, primarily aimed at children and their parents, covering themes of nature, childhood experiences, and family relationships. Through light-hearted imagery and lyrical language, Farrar captures the wonder of childhood and the joys of parenting. The poems in "Songs for Parents" are organized into several thematic sections, including "Songs of Desire," "Songs for Out of Doors," "Songs of Circumstance," and "Songs for a Christmas Tree." Each poem explores different aspects of childhood imagination and nature, showcasing children's innocent desires, their thoughts about the world around them, and experiences with family. For example, the poems reflect on the joy of being a carefree frog or the curious musings about where clouds go. The collection conveys a sense of nostalgia and tenderness, illuminating the delightful yet complex dynamics of growing up and parenthood through Farrar's charming and evocative verse.
