Some poetry that inspires and intrigues me.

Down By the Sally Gardens
Sally Gardens, a lovely poem often sung. By W.B. Yeats, credit to W.B. Yeats Collected Poems.

The Ballad of Father O'Hart
Another classic Irish poem from Yeats. Courtesy of W.B. Yeats Collected Poems.

I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
A beautiful piece by Maya Angelou. Got this from Empire Zine.

Phenomenal Woman
The most empowering poem I've ever read. By Maya Angelou, courtesy of Empire Zine.

The Raven
Well, I HAD to add this onto the poetry page. It's pretty much a given. Written by Edgar Allen Poe in 1845. Found it at Edgar Allen Poe's Usher House.

Alone
My favourite piece by Poe. Found it at Qrisse's Edgar Allen Poe Pages.

Israfel
Another favourite by Poe. Found it at Qrisse's Edgar Allen Poe Pages.

I Am Not Yours
A soft, subtle love poem by Sarah Teasdale.

Against Women Unconstant
The irrepressable, unforgettable Geoffrey Chaucer.
