"Think of some famous poems, think of the best poems of all times. How many of them don't rhyme?" D. Rudoy. The rhyming poem is a dying breed: if you don't specify the rhyming part withing a query, the search engine may offer you only free verses. Does it mean that modern poets have abandoned the hard and rewarding quest for the mesmerizing rhythm and perfect rhyme? "Love Is - Rhyming Poems About Life", a brand-new collection of love poetry by Danil Rudoy, suggests that the land of exquisite rhyming still does welcome the daring literary connoisseur. "Love Is - Rhyming Poems About Life". A Tribute to the Best Poems of All Time Classic love poetry takes you on a journey to your best self. For that, three ingredients are required: a poetic talent, a rhyme, and a rhythm. Combined, they form a magic solution that delivers the soul to a beautiful place where wisdom reigns over the hearts and deep awe is the best proof of the validity of your experience. The difference between love and life is illusory: those who loved once know it best. In "Love Is - Rhyming ..." Rudoy demotes this barrier with vehement determination of someone who's seen the truth and wants to share it with fellow humans. His love pivots around evolution: the lyrical hero is painfully aware of how fragile we are and pushes himself to an extreme searching for happiness that will outlast a transient desire. He boldly wishes for his beloved "to have a lucid dream tonight", or to wake up to the immensity around that likens the human soul to a brave candle flickering in infinity and looking for kindred flames. Magical themes and images are fairly common in "Love Is - Rhyming ..." as the poet explores the human potential. Consequently, love plays the role of a catalyst that prohibits giving up. And, much like the free verse is an alluring trap for those without a clear vision of their literary path, it is tempting to indulge in weakness and give in to destructive egoism that is especially detrimental in love affairs. To Rudoy, a rhyming poem about love is therefore a quintessence of power, a magic key that opens the hearts of the lover and the beloved, making their passion mutual and everlasting. And the poet's hope is that, by reading "Love Is - Rhyming ...", people will become not mere observers but active and conscious participants in the building of their own happiness with those men and women who once captivated their souls and opened their eyes to the beautiful shine of eternal love. Danil Rudoy on Rhyming Poetry"The rhymed verse is the only literary form deserving to be called poetry. The rest is, at best, aphoristic prose. And most of the time it's mediocre prose with clumsy line breaks in unexpected places.""One cannot simply blurt out some nonsense and call it poetry. Poetry is never trivial: it is aware of itself, and of the impact it has on life. The rhyme helps to maintain and polish that awareness to sublime states; it is the great filter of thoughts turning raw words and phrases into immortal memory.""They will tell you that rhyme and rhythm were removed from poetry to arrive at new, modern, contemporary forms. It's true, but only in part. The rest is: bad poets realized that, if they didn't have to rhyme, they could sell their writing to the same readers who'd have puked at the authors had the "poems" been rhymed.""The right to write poetry that doesn't rhyme is earned by showing that you can write poetry like the famous classics used to. If you can't, you are but an impostor. And, no matter what you call the pile of your "poetics", it'll remain what it is: crap.""Naturally, among non-rhyming poems there also are true masterpieces of literature; although it's hard to remember the last time a poem like that came around."

The instant New York Times bestseller featured on NPR's Weekend Edition with Scott Simon! B. J. Novak (bestselling author of The Book With No Pictures) described this groundbreaking poetry collection as "Smart and sweet, wild and wicked, brilliantly funny--it's everything a book for kids should be." Lauded by critics as a worthy heir to such greats as Silverstein, Seuss, Nash and Lear, Harris's hilarious debut molds wit and wordplay, nonsense and oxymoron, and visual and verbal sleight-of-hand in masterful ways that make you look at the world in a whole new wonderfully upside-down way. With enthusiastic endorsements from bestselling luminaries such as Lemony Snicket, Judith Viorst, Andrea Beaty, and many others, this entirely unique collection offers a surprise around every corner. Adding to the fun: Lane Smith, bestselling creator of beloved hits like It's a Book and The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales, has spectacularly illustrated this extraordinary collection with nearly one hundred pieces of appropriately absurd art. It's a mischievous match made in heaven! "Ridiculous, nonsensical, peculiar, outrageous, possibly deranged--and utterly, totally, absolutely delicious. Read it! Immediately!" --Judith Viorst, bestselling author of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

The editors of this legendary and hilarious anthology write: "It would seem at a hasty glance that to make an anthology of Bad Verse is on the whole a simple matter . . . On the contrary . . . Bad Verse has its canons, like Good Verse. There is bad Bad Verse and good Bad Verse. It has been the constant preoccupation of the compilers to include in this book chiefiy good Bad Verse." Here indeed one finds the best of the worst of the greatest poets of the English language, masterpieces of the maladroit by Dryden, Wordsworth, and Keats, among many others, together with an index ("Maiden, feathered, uncontrolled appetites of, 59;. . . Manure, adjudged a fit subject for the Muse, 91") that is itself an inspired work of folly.

In this unusual collection, poems and photographs focus on shapes in nature. Some shapes are found in familiar places: A circle is the sun and a crescent is the moon. But there are imaginative surprises too: an alligator's tooth is a triangle and a frond's shadow forms a square. Related shape words—round, halo, sphere, etc.—are scattered throughout the spreads. This collaboration captures the beauty of shapes in nature in a playful way.

A remarkable Pocket Poets anthology of poems from around the world and across the centuries about illness and healing, both physical and spiritual. From ancient Greece and Rome up to the present moment, poets have responded with sensitivity and insight to the troubles of the human body and mind. Poems of Healing gathers a treasury of such poems, tracing the many possible journeys of physical and spiritual illness, injury, and recovery, from John Donne’s “Hymne to God My God, In My Sicknesse” and Emily Dickinson’s “The Soul has Bandaged moments” to Eavan Boland’s “Anorexic,” from W.H. Auden’s “Miss Gee” to Lucille Clifton’s “Cancer,” and from D.H. Lawrence’s “The Ship of Death” to Rafael Campo’s “Antidote” and Seamus Heaney’s “Miracle.” Here are poems from around the world, by Sappho, Milton, Baudelaire, Longfellow, Cavafy, and Omar Khayyam; by Stevens, Lowell, and Plath; by Zbigniew Herbert, Louise Bogan, Yehuda Amichai, Mark Strand, and Natalia Toledo. Messages of hope in the midst of pain—in such moving poems as Adam Zagajewski’s “Try to Praise the Mutilated World,” George Herbert’s “The Flower,” Wisława Szymborska’s “The End and the Beginning,” Gwendolyn Brooks’ “when you have forgotten Sunday: the love story” and Stevie Smith’s “Away, Melancholy”—make this the perfect gift to accompany anyone on a journey of healing. Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket.

A Revolution in Rhyme: Poetic Co-option under the Islamic Republic tells the story of the lives and works of Iranian poets whose personal and literary career were shaped by the Iranian revolution in 1979. By drawing on similar examples, such as Soviet Russia, the book tries to tackle some key questions: how did these poets come to be known in the literary scene? What did they write about, and what were their ideas, styles, and literary techniques? And, last but not least, what kind of relationship have they established with the ruling power on the course of the past four decades? In a detailed study, Shams tackles the life and work of ten Iranian poets whose personal and literary lives transformed and were transformed by the 1979 Revolution and the rise of the Islamic Republic, shedding light on ways in which the current ruling state in Iran uses literature and particularly poetry as a tool for ideological dissemination.
