Audio Book Summary

Poetry is often cited as our greatest use of words. The English language has well over a million of them and poets down the ages seem, at times, to make use of every single one. But often they use them in simple ways to describe anything and everything from landscapes to all aspects of the human condition. Poems can evoke within us an individual response that takes us by surprise; that opens our ears and eyes to very personal feelings.Forget the idea of classic poetry being somehow dull and boring and best kept to children’s textbooks. It still has life, vibrancy and relevance to our lives today. Where to start? How to do that? Poetry can be difficult. We’ve put together some very eclectic Poetry Hours, with a broad range of poets and themes, to entice you and seduce you with all manner of temptations. In this hour we introduce poets of the quality and breadth of John Donne and Jane Austen as well as themes on November, The Female Poet, Westminster Memorials and more.All of them are from Portable Poetry, a dedicated poetry publisher. We believe that poetry should be a part of our everyday lives, uplifting the soul & reaching the parts that other arts can’t. Our range of audiobooks and ebooks cover volumes on some of our greatest poets to anthologies of seasons, months, places and a wide range of themes. Portable Poetry can found at iTunes, Audible, the digital music section on Amazon and most other digital stores. This audio book is also duplicated in print as an ebook. Same title. Same words. Perhaps a different experience. But with Amazon’s whispersync you can pick up and put down on any device – start on audio, continue in print and any which way after that. Portable poetry – Let us join you for the journey.The Poetry Hour – Volume 14 - An IntroductionJohn Donne – An IntroductionDeath Be Not Proud by John DonneThe Good Morrow by John DonneThe Expiration by John DonneA Valediction Forbidding Mourning by John DonneWestminster Memorials – An IntroductionLonging by Matthew ArnoldLondon by William BlakeHeaven by Rupert BrookeApostasy by Charlotte BronteWhen We Two Parted by Lord ByronHe That is Down Needs Fear No Fall by John BunyanTurtle Soup by Lewis CarrollA Thought For A Lonely Death Bed by Elizabeth Barrett BrowningNovemberNovember by Thomas hoodNovember by Amy LowellNovember by John PayneA November Night by Sara TeasdaleAt Day Close In November by Thomas HardyThe Poetry of William Shakespeare - An IntroductionIf Music Be the Food of Love, from Twelfth Night by William ShakespeareHow Like A Winter Hath My Absence Been (Sonnet 97) by William ShakespeareShall I Compare Thee to A Summers Day (Sonnet 18) by William ShakespeareThe Witches Spell by William ShakespeareFull Fathom Five by William ShakespeareNo Longer Mourn For Me by William ShakespeareSonnet 116 by William Shakespeare The Female Poet – An Introduction.
