Poetry

I have a very great love of poetry and so thought that I’d make a pare with links to some of my favorite poems.  Probably won’t put any of my poetry up here because that is just not my style but who knows, maybe someday.  I’m not going to bother to put this peoms in any specific order, I’ll probably just list them as I think of them or encounter them.
