Dickinson
Her melodies on God,
Clover bells and bees,
Heaven and eternity and birds -
All her tiny poems
On subjects such as these
Are precious – too much so
For clumsy words.
Dickinson by Joseph Hart | Garden Lavender Poetry Reed Diffuser Set
I have a BA in psychology, but didn't finish graduate school where my major was humanities, a major I liked a lot more. My favorite poets are Keats and Millay. My favorite books are Camus' "The Stranger" and Proust's "Jean Santeuil". My two favorite short stories are Capote's "Preacher's Legend" and Chekhov's "The Black Monk". And my Favorite writer is Iris Murdoch. My poems have rhythm (I hope) and sometimes rhyme. I don't like and don't write what people call free or experimental verse. And I don't think I could write it if I wanted to. Of my own collections of poems, the ones I like are "Idle Fancies", "The Sea, The Sea" (most of the poems in these were first published in magazines), "On Poetry" (this is not didactic) and "An Empty, Abandoned House". These books were published by Cyberwit.net. And "Indian Poems" published by Kelsay Books. All the poems in this book were first published in journals in India.
