    Any poetry lovers here? I'm reading through Tennyson right now and I also really enjoy Wordsworth, Keats, and Dunn.

    I love poetry. William Blake and William Wordsworth are my favourites.

    Charlotte Mew is a favorite of mine. I used to read a ton of Keats and Tennyson as well. But I am an omnivorous poetry reader. :slight_smile:

    Tintern Abbey is one of my all-time favourites.

    Goethe, Judith Wright, Oodgeroo Noonuccal, Sylvia Plath, Maya Angelou and Gabriel García Márquez are definitely my favourite poets.

    I also found John Donne a good subject for learning poetry in terms of techniques and as a point of reference for modern poetry's development, though I wasn't really enthralled by the poetry itself.
