For winter’s rains and ruins are over,
And all the seasons of snows and sins;
The days of dividing lover and lover,
The light that loses, the night that wins;
And time remembered is grief forgotten,
And frosts are slain and flowers begotten,
And in green underwood and cover
Blossom by blossom the spring begins.

Welcome to the Atalanta Project. I began this project to create a resource for girls and women to counteract the cultural pressures around appearance. Here you will find personal essays, narratives, and poems.  Please look around the site, read the contributions, and learn more about the project.
