The Magical World of Poetry

Poetry is an art form in which powerful ideas and emotions can be conveyed with just a few words. While a picture may be worth a thousand words, a poem can reveal the intricacies of the human heart with a clarity that pictures can seldom match. This collection contains over one hundred ninety works, from all-time favorites such as "Annabel Lee", "Paul Revere's Ride", and "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock", to many lesser known gems. Included herein are poems by Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare, Edgar Allan Poe, Sara Teasdale, Edgar Guest, Eugene Field, Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, T.S. Eliot, Robert Frost, Frances E. W. Harper, George Moses Horton, and many others. Edited by Mark James Wooding
