Katherine's Poetry Collection

Collected here are some poems I particularly like. I've tried to be scrupulous about not violating copyright. To that end, I have removed the poems I had by Maya Angelou and Langston Hughes, so I apologize if you were looking for them.

Stephen Vincent Benet's "American Names" and "The Mountain Whippoorwill"
An excerpt from John Frederick Nims's "The Observatory Ode"
William Blake's "The Tiger"
Part of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's "In Memoriam A.H.H."
A sampling of Piet Hein's "Grooks"
An anonymous poem that appeared on United Way posters in Boston subway stations
I've created a primer on writing poetry in traditional Welsh forms.
And, some poetry of my own.
