Poetry

Poetry fascinates readers with its unique language and varied subjects that poets have dramatized for centuries. The Ancients captivated listeners with their ability to spin a memorable yarn. Ancient Indian epics, the Mahabharata and the Ramayana, were so easily memorized that it was centuries before anyone wrote them down.

From the Ancients, such as Homer and Basho, to early Americans, including Phillis Wheatley, Emily Dickinson, and Walt Whitman to the most contemporary poets such as recent poets laureate, Kay Ryan, W. S. Merwin, and currently Philip Levine, the journey through poetry remains colorful and enticing.
