DailyLit is celebrating National Poetry Month together with Poets & Writers in the launch of 30 poems by late, great poets. This collection of poems, created exclusively for DailyLit, will be sent (one a day) to your email Inbox (or via RSS feed). Sign up here to start receiving them (for free).
Here’s a description of Masters of Verse: 30 Poems by Late, Great Poets:
Whitman and Yeats, Dickinson and Stein, Eliot and Frost. We all know their names. We’ve all read (or, in some instances, been forced to read) the poems that made them famous. But in their dusty tomes lie poetic gems to be uncovered, unexpected lines to be read, and new favorites to be found. This collection, compiled in celebration of National Poetry Month, offers some of the best-known poems—together with a few uncommon selections—for readers who want to revisit, reconsider, or even rediscover the lasting power of poems by the masters.
In case you’re not familiar with Poets & Writers, here’s a brief description:
Poets & Writers, Inc., is the primary source of information, support, and guidance for creative writers. Founded in 1970, it is the nation’s largest nonprofit literary organization serving poets, fiction writers, and creative nonfiction writers. Their mission is to foster the professional development of poets and writers, to promote communication throughout the U.S. literary community, and to help create an environment in which literature can be appreciated by the widest possible public.
And DailyLit is all about appreciating literature by the widest possible public!
