A great collection of short poems ... some familiar, some lesser known ... as read by a wide range of volunteers. Excellent listening!

Masterpiece


(5 stars)

I've read most of these when I was in school thought provoking and mesmerizing,they don't write nowadays like they used to in past.

A goodly collection

Some were old friends always welcome but I'm glad to say some new poems found their way to my heart.

New to me poems


(5 stars)

Like others have said, you'll recognize a few, and a few you won't. It's always fun to hear a new poem.
