Summary "Muse and Mint" by Walter Seymour Percy is a collection of poetry written in the early 20th century. The work reflects on life, nature, love, and the intricacies of human emotions through a range of themes and styles. The title suggests a duality of inspiration and refreshment, possibly implying that the poems serve to invigorate the spirit while exploring the depth of musings on life." "The opening of "Muse and Mint" introduces a reflective tone as the speaker contemplates the strangeness and disillusionment inherent in life. Through vivid imagery and lyrical expressions, the poem highlights the interplay between dreams and reality, infusing philosophical musings with the simplicity of nature. As the speaker struggles to find beauty and music in existence, a child selling mint symbolizes the small joys and fragrant moments that can offer respite and insight amid life's complexities. The beginning sets the stage for a poetic journey that marries introspection with the vibrant experiences and emotions that life offers." (This is an automatically generated summary.)
