DOWNLOAD EBOOK“A really beautiful book” of poems that delve into—and help us transcend—suffering, loss, fear, and loneliness, by the author of How to Read a Poem (The Boston Globe). Implicit in poetry is the idea that we are enriched by heartbreaks, by the recognition and understanding of suffering—not just our own suffering but also the pain of others. We are not so much diminished as enlarged by grief, by our refusal to vanish, or to let others vanish, without leaving a record. And poets are people who are determined to leave a trace in words, to transform oceanic depths of feeling into art that speaks to others. In 100 Poems to Break Your Heart, Edward Hirsch—prize-winning poet, critic, and author of How to Read a Poem—selects 100 poems, from the nineteenth century to the present, and illuminates them, unpacking context and references to help the reader fully experience the range of emotion and wisdom within them. “Darkly illuminating.” —Booklist (starred review) “These 100 poems will indeed break hearts, but they also offer examples of resilience, the lasting impact of words, and a wisdom that a reader can return to and share.” —New York Journal of Books

DOWNLOAD EBOOK... Tomorrow has arrived. The sagacious man was right: I now see the sun with rays so bright. How wonderful a gift the day can be. I am forever strong, and I am free! Lucy Di Piazza believes not in extreme complexities but in the purity of words and their power to touch the soul and heart. In a collection of inspirational poetry inspired by life events and experiences, Lucy explores a variety of subjects that include the cycle of life, why it is fun to exercise, what it is like to walk alone in the dark, how to overcome the rage of an internal storm, why it is important to allow our hearts and spirits to fly, why we all need to pursue our dreams, and how it is possible to have a magnificent heart filled with never-ending love for others. Through her touching lyrical reflections, Lucy encourages all of us to believe in compassion, love, and the beauty of life. The Heart Speaks shares poetry written from the heart intended to touch the essence of others and provide hope that no matter what our challenges, love will prevail.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor this companion to her New York Times best-selling collection A Family of Poems, Caroline Kennedy has hand-selected more than a hundred of her favorite poems that lend themselves to memorization. Some are joyful. Some are sad. Some are funny and lighthearted. Many offer layers of meaning that reveal themselves only after the poem has been studied so closely as to be learned by heart. In issuing the challenge to memorize great poetry, Caroline Kennedy invites us to a deeply enriching experience. For as she reminds us, “If we learn poems by heart, not only do we have their wisdom to draw on, we also gain confidence, knowledge and understanding that no one can take away.” Illustrated with gorgeous, original watercolor paintings by award-winning artist Jon J Muth , this is truly a book for all ages, and one that families will share again and again. Caroline’s thoughtful introductions shed light on the many ways we can appreciate poetry, and the special tradition of memorizing and reciting poetry that she celebrates within her own family.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTen Poems to Open Your Heart is a book devoted to love: to the intimacy of personal love and lovemaking, to a loving compassion for others, and to the love that embraces both this world and the next. This new volume from Roger Housden features a few of the same poets as his extraordinarily moving Ten Poems to Change Your Life, such as Mary Oliver and Pablo Neruda, along with contributions from Sharon Olds, Wislawa Szymborska, Czeslaw Milosz, Denise Levertov, and others. Any one of the ten poems and, indeed, any one of Housden’s reflections on them, can open, gladden, or pierce your heart. Through the voices of these ten inspiring poets, and through illustrations from his own life, Housden expresses the tenderness, beauty, joys, and sorrows of love, the presence of which, more than anything else, gives human existence its meaning. As Housden says in his eloquent introduction, “Great poetry happens when the mind is looking the other way and words fall from the sky to shape a moment that would normally be untranslatable. . . . When the heart opens, we forget ourselves and the world pours in: this world, and also the invisible world of meaning that sustains everything that was and ever shall be.” From the Hardcover edition.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKJust because you don't write doesn't mean you're not a poet! Poetry is art-art that can be created without experience and without expensive materials. Poetry can help us find a voice.

Poetry can honor heritage, give creative expression to causes and passions, and capture the love of nature. Poetry is a canvas on which to create images from the musings of the mind. The Heart of a Poet encourages poets with less or no experience to have some fun writing. It has simple instructions for writing several forms of poetry, and examples of each in a variety of themes and ideas. And writing poetry gets easier with practice! Once you've written your first sonnet, you might find the freedom and the fun in creating beautiful verses. Perhaps your first triolet will sound like magic, and words will become your artist materials. You may even discover that you too have The Heart of a Poet!
