Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Child of the People and Other Poems O perfect Poet-choir whose voices ring Like gathering trumpets as the ages go, Each in its part, or resonant or low, - Flute-throated one as any bird in Spring, One full-toned as the surges' thundering, One compassing all chords in even flow, - So sweet, so full, your stately measures grow, Men care no more to hear their fellows sing. Vex not your endless strain with scorn of me, That, in years shadowed with your fame, I play With words your breath to songs immortal drew, Since ye be mighty lords of melody, - I, a poor harp whereon the winds essay Soon-dying numbers, may-be learned from you.

Download or read book Someone I Like written by and published by Barefoot Books. This book was released on 2000 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sisters, brothers, teachers, parents, grandparents, best friends... everyone must learn about and live in relationships from an early age. In this fine anthology of poems compiled by poet Judith Nicholls, all kinds of human relationships are explored, sometimes comically, sometimes poignantly. Poems by Gwendolyn Brooks, Charlotte Zolotow, Langston Hughes, Eloise Greenfield, and many other well-known and less familiar writers fill the beautifully illustrated pages with wit and soul. Giovanni Manna's china ink and watercolor paintings have an unusual, appealing feel, and perfectly complement each poem, whether it was written in China in the first century B.C., or last year at a computer in a New York apartment building. Common themes such as new sibling ambivalence, fights among friends, and aging grandparents are covered, as well as imaginary playmates and overly kissy aunts. Rhythm and rhyme, lilting, musical verses... readers do not need to be poetry aficionados to fall in love with this marvelous collection. As in this poem by Andrew Collett about a teacher telling stories to her class, these poems "take us far away:" We all sit in silence we just sit and stare, for when teacher tells us stories she makes us feel we're there. AGES: 4 and up
