Stanzas (1827)

from Ririro.com - Poetry Hosted by Ririro

Stanzas (1827) by Edgar Allan Poe is an early poem exploring the mysterious bond between a sensitive spirit and the natural world. Through four lyrical stanzas, Poe reflects on a soul lit by the sun and stars, stirred by moonlight, and caught between earthly passion and spiritual longing. A strange, harp-like awakening runs through the poem — the sense that beauty glimpsed in ordinary life carries a secret meaning, a token of something promised in worlds beyond this one.

Song Against Songs, The by G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011. Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia )
