Here are sonnets, haiku, limericks, terza rima, blank verse and free verse, all embracing the beauty of words and life's changing scenes. The range of poetic forms, as well as tributes to Keats, Tennyson, Shakespeare, Ginsberg, and others make this book a handy resource for teachers of Language Arts at all levels. Even readers who have not enjoyed poetry before will be drawn in by the rhythms and sensory descriptions on a variety of subjects. The contents are divided into six sections: Youth and Childhood; Here and There; Arts and Letters;Poems of Loss; Poems of Faith; Time and Tide.
