About Poetry Books
BLOG SESSION
January 6th, 2018
Good Afternoon Poets, Writers, and all Blog Readers, Followers & Visitors ~ We are back for another exciting Blog Session that is focused on Poetry Books. Surely, all the Poets of our Blog will find this Session interesting, but so will the Lovers of Poetry, and those Writers here with us who try their hand at poetry writing every now and then.
If you are a Poet, or a lover of poetry, it is pretty understandable if you have a bookshelf that contains a few very nice Poetry Books written by some famous, and in many cases -- not so famous Poets. Your poetry is worthy of being bound in a book!
We've all heard certain names, and read the poetry of most of the famous Poets of our time. Like who has not heard of Edgar Allan Poe ~ whose book of poetry is pictured at the top of this Blog (with Illustrations inside by W. Heath Robinson).
Edgar Allan Poe
One of the most famous of Poe's poems is "The Raven", which is a narrative poem by this well known American Writer. Edgar Allan Poe's poem was first published in January 1845. The poem is often noted for its musicality, stylized language, and supernatural atmosphere. It tells of a talking raven's mysterious visit to a distraught lover, tracing the man's slow fall into madness. The lover, often identified as being a student, is lamenting the loss of his love, Lenore. Sitting on a bust of Pallas, the raven seems to further instigate his distress with its constant repetition of the word "Nevermore". The poem makes use of a number of folk, mythological, religious, and classical references.

The Raven
In a previous Blog Session, we discussed the fabulous idea of making a Poetry Journal. If you are a Poet, then you can appreciate having a wonderful Journal just for your poetry writings. You can be very creative with your Poetry Journal by decorating it and placing embellishments on your Journal that speak to your heart. Making your Poetry Journal personal and attractive will inspire you to write in it.
Poetry Journal for the Poet
For this Session, please grab your Poetry Journal dear friends. It does not have to be decorated yet. And, if you do not yet have your Poetry Journal, you have a little time to pick one up and start thinking about how you'd like to decorate it. The point is, we would like to start writing in our Journals.
Get your poetry cap out, and be sure to check back in here for our next Blog Session where we will discuss how to get your Poetry Journal decorated and how to work on unique poetry creations!
