The World's Best Short Poems A great introduction to poetry for both young and old and a super resource for lovers of poetry. Poetry has a long history, dating back to the Sumerian Epic of Gilgamesh. Poetry as an art form may predate literacy. Specific poetic forms have been developed by many cultures. In more developed, closed or "received" poetic forms, the rhyming scheme, meter and other elements of a poem are based on sets of rules, ranging from the relatively loose rules that govern the construction of an elegy to the highly formalized structure of the ghazal or villanelle. This great volume contains a selection of classic short poems from the likes of; Walt Whitman Lord Byron W.E. Henley Alfred, Lord Tennyson John Milton Robert Browning Rudyard Kipling Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Christina Rossetti Ben Jonson William Wordsworth Emily Dickinson John Dryden Thomas Gray Thomas Hardy George Herbert Samuel Taylor Coleridge Robert Herrick Edward Lear Andrew Marvell Wilfred Owen William Shakespeare
