I too love to read. I love to teach poetry to the elementary school children. Some of the children are falling in love with poetry, because it is their thoughts, and it is never wrong!!!! I too could name a list of books that are great to read. Christina Rossetti, Emily Bronte, Anne Sexton, Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, Mattie Stepanek, just to name a few....

maybe she hard to understand because she seems to leave out so much with her elliptical style and contracting metaphors.
