This poem by Yeats I find especially moving. It’s about the poetic gift itself and its inadequacy to meet the need for ultimate understanding. What is the attitude that we read in the final stanza? Acceptance? Regret? Both? #yeats #poetry #poem #books #literature

I’ve been enjoying reading this old Dover Thrift Edition of Great Love Poems. This poem by Samuel Daniel I find quite amusing. We’ve all been there, huh? #poetry #poems #lovepoems #books #literature

Signed copy. I like her poetry. She has some nice turns of phrase. There’s an intensity of focus in her poems. There’s an unsettling quality about them, too. #poetry #margaretatwood #books #reading
