And I hope that my tongue won't utter The Curses that rise in me. O well for the fisherman's boy, If he likes to be soused with spray! Or well for the sailor lad, As he paddles about in the bay! And the ships swim happily on To their haven under the hill; But O for a clutch at that vanish'd hand, And a kick - for I'm catching a chill! Break, break, break, At my poor bare feet, O Sea! But the artful scamp who has collar'd my clothes Will never come back to me. Tennison Minor. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Treasury of Favorite Poems Classic Reprint written by Walter Learned and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treasury of Favorite Poems So many and such excellent collections of favorite poems have already been made that this volume contains but few poems that are not in some other collection. A new collection is, to a certain extent, but a turn of the kaleidoscope, a rearranging of the poems that live, not because they are collected, but which are collected because they live. So far, then, as it concerns the poems of the past, this volume is largely collected from collections. Time tries and sifts, and its verdict is clear and pronounced on the many poems to be found in all anthologies. Concerning the poems of to-day, an attempt has been made to include a few which seem to have a i)resent and deserved popularity. To keep such a volume within the bounds of easy handling and reading is certainly to exclude a great deal of popular verse. The principle of selection cannot be easily defined, but it has been, perhaps, an attempt to include those poems which the majority of intelligent people would care for most, which touch some popular chord, which are most likely to be cut out for the scrapbook.

Download or read book One Hundred Best American Poems Classic Reprint written by John Raymond Howard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from One Hundred Best American Poems This grouping of American poems had its rise in the welcome accorded to a little volume entitled "The Hundred Best English Poems," issued by the same publishers. To select one hundred examples from the best work by our American poets, excluding all living authors, and avoiding an undue proportion of pieces by the few acknowledged to be preeminent, has been a puzzling although a pleasant task. Of course, no two editors would select the same hundred pieces from the sixty-four poets here represented. Any one familiar with our poetical literature will miss here certain favorites, and perhaps would criticize some of the selections. This is inevitable. It is not always the most finished art which expresses feelings and "thoughts that shall live within the general mind."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.
