What a wonderful idea! Poetry was always a very delicate subject to me. As an avid reader, it is almost embarrasing to admit that I have never paid much attention to this form of writing. In other words, poetry books were never on top of my book list I borrowed from the library. After reading Erica’s post, I felt diffrently about poetry. I have checked out books from Shel Silverstein and Beowulf in the past and I have also read some poetry in Spanish like Martin Fierro and Don Quijote de la Mancha. I understand that, with my limited knowledge about poetry and the magnitud of these type of books, it might heen quite too much to digest, except those from S.S. But, I think by subscribing to poets.org I will spend a few minutes a day and that, will probably, give me more “tangible” material to work with.
I am very excited to learn about poetry and also to get to know and read more this form of writing. This inspiration really clicked! This tip was really useful. I hope writers out there are taking advantage of these great sites. Thank you!
