A few of the favorite poets....

Raymond Carver, Carolyn Kizer, Gerald Stern, Billy Collins, Maude Meehan, Lucille Clifton, Robert Wrigley, Philip Levine...just to name a few. I have over 50 books of poetry in my personal collection and I've read each book so many times the pages are dog-earred and ragged.

Always looking for a new favorite.

How I enjoyed your reading! I feel a bit foolish not to know Raymond Carver wrote poetry, I thought he was a short story writer (whom I've read).  Thanks for responding, and may we hear more from you, please?

thanks Dahlia, I'd love to read more. Poetry is the deep love of my heart...has been since I was a small child and devoured everyday, the only book of poetry in my entire house....I kept the book, even though the poetry is ghastly....some 70 page book all about farm animals.

mine is Walton S. Tissot; he's so cool!

great reading. sometimes i get out of touch with the heart of simply great poetry.

I have Carolyn Kizer's book "The Nearness Of You". The poem "Horseback" is on page 80.

oh the reason that I didn't authorise the video response to mine is I believe that you were trying to attach it to Daliak's vid, if I accept it I don't think you can attach to hers, oterwise good vid 5/5

thank's for posting the response, I was actually responding to another user Judelicious1971 (now Jedeliciousreturns) I believe she would love to see this vid, and if you get a chance look into her charity
