Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bird Poems of Miles a Davis Nothing seems more natural and proper as a subject of poetic meditation than birds - those seemingly free and joyous spirits of the air, lovely in contour, in color, and in grace of movement, saluting us with harmonious greetings as we wake refreshed at dawn, and wooing us to slumber with gentle notes as twilight closes the day. Birds combine in a singular degree to the poet's eye, beauty and sentiment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book In Time of Swallows written by Mae Winkler Goodman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Time of Swallows: 52 American Birds Usually introductions are written to point out to readers the merits of the work they are about to read. Often, however, the merits are more obvious in themselves than they appear in dis cussion. In reading one of these poems you will see a living bird flashing before your eyes among green leaves, hopping delicately on a lawn, or looking out warily from a secret nest - you will hear his call or song and feel you know him intimately. What could I add to this? Only that I am proud to have had something to do with the making of this book. I chose many of these poems for The Washington Post while I was its poetry editor; I encouraged Mae Winkler Goodman to expand a group of a few bird portraits to the considerable series you see here; and then suggested she secure an illustrator and make a book of it. I had not dreamed, I admit, that she would find such an illustrator as William Scheele, at once an ornithologist of distinction and an artist - able, without compromise, to combine scientific accuracy with the intangibles of omission and suggestion and atmosphere that make a picture not merely exact, but real and living.

Download or read book Oblivion Banjo written by Charles Wright and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 784 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The selected works of one of our finest American poets The thread that dangles us between a dark and a darker dark, Is luminous, sure, but smooth sided. Don’t touch it here, and don’t touch it there. Don’t touch it, in fact, anywhere— Let it dangle and hold us hard, let it flash and swing. —from “Scar Tissue” Over the course of his work—more than twenty books in total—Charles Wright has built “one of the truly distinctive bodies of poetry created in the second half of the twentieth century” (David Young, Contemporary Poets). Oblivion Banjo, a capacious new selection spanning his decades-long career, showcases the central themes of Wright’s poetry: “language, landscape, and the idea of God.” No matter the precise subject of each poem, on display here is a vast and rich interior life, a mind wrestling with the tenuous relationship between the ways we describe the world and its reality. The recipient of almost every honor in poetry—the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, and the Bollingen Prize, to name a few—and a former poet laureate of the United States, Wright is an essential voice in American letters. Oblivion Banjo is the perfect distillation of his inimitable career—for devout fans and newcomers alike.
