Sword Blades and Poppy Seed (1914) is a poetry collection by Amy Lowell. Published at the beginning of her career as an influential imagist devoted to classical poetic themes and forms, Sword Blades and Poppy Seed is an agile and promising work from a pioneering poet of the early twentieth century. The title poem of Lowell's collection is an imaginative voyage into the mind of a poet struggling with writer's block, who scans the city for "the slightest...

In powerful language, that reflects the conflicts between the primitive and the sophisticated, Joan Crate redreams the passions, which animated and tormented her famous predecessor. Part white, part Mohawk princess, Pauline Johnson /Tekahionwake would perform her poems first in buckskin, then, after the intermission, in silk.

The urgency of the climate emergency is explored in this latest collection by award-winning poet Talya Rubin. It offers recognition of, and salve for, the vast mysteries of the natural world, our human interior, and the relationship between the two. In these poems, human and wild meet in everyday encounters: the melting of ice sheets and fathoming ecological disaster while listening to news reports on the radio, moments of childhood ice skating and...

"I am busy seeing," declares the reverent and ever-curious speaker of Mustard, Milk, & Gin. In this haunting debut, Megan Denton Ray unflinchingly sifts through the sediment of a girlhood ruled by service. Everything in these poems sweats-the sunflower working hard for its first pair of leaves, the sister feeding her twin like a father, the men and women working in a community ravaged by the opioid crisis. With tender restraint, Ray's poems question...

Sometimes you feel numb – numb to whatever it is going on in your life. You're not necessarily sad or mad, but you aren't happy either.You feel that if you slip away and attempt to feel something, it will all get better. But it doesn't, it never does. You're probably sick of hearing: 'You're not alone, just be happy, it'll pass, your life isn't that bad.' Just feel it out. Feel your pain and know that it's ok to feel numb. This is your permission...

We all have experienced pain and the joy of relationships. Though each relationship is different, they all come with a similar set of ups and downs, of feelings and emotions. The poems within this book are a collection of such emotions. It Is What It Is takes the readers on an emotional roller coaster of the trails of a relationship. Take a ride on It Is What It Is, and I'm sure you will enjoy.

Each of us has a story to tell. Words free us from all we hold inside, whether they are happy memories or sad. This collection of poems are words from the heart. Whose heart you ask? Well, that I will never tell. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I did writing them.

The poems in Stars in a Jar are as eclectic as the person who penned them--some silly, some sad, some sacred, some hoping, some hurting, some heartfelt, but all reflecting the wandering mind of a head-in-the-clouds dreamer.

Poetry is not only a verse on a sheet of blank paper. It is colored with a tear, with a smile of good memories. It is a decision about whether a poet wants to leave his good heart to everyone as an accomplishment of his destiny and his life. Poetry is not imagination, it is a real event. True poets write real poetry.
