Long Poems Collection 5 by Various Loyal Books Long Poems Collection 005: a collection of 10 public-domain poems longer than 5 minutes in length. Poems and Songs by Henry Kendall (1839 - 1882) LibriVox Henry Kendall was the first Australian poet to draw his inspiration from the life, scenery and traditions of the country. In the beginnings of Australian poetry the names of two other men stand with his—Adam Lindsay Gordon, of English parentage and education, and Charles Harpur, born in Australia a generation earlier than Kendall. Harpur's work, though lacking vitality, shows fitful gleams of poetic fire suggestive of greater achievement had the circumstances of his life been more favourable. Kendall, whose lot was scarcely more fortunate, is a true singer; his songs remain, and are likely long to remain, attractive to poetry lovers. - Summary by From the Introduction Miscellaneous Reads Tori Hofstein Are you on your way to work?
