Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding a sonnet and what it is among other poets can do a lot for writing your own. The Shakespearean Sonnet is probably the most difficult of the sonnet forms, but with a little practice, and a little knowledge, and a little determination, and a little heart, you can do it, too. Did I mention sleepless nights? And knowing about the Muses and who they were and what they can do for a poet? It is all in this casual approach to writing Shakespearean Sonnets, and it even tells you which of the nine Muses will be singing for you when you write. If you are very good, and very lucky, and very persistent, all nine of them will join in a choir for you some night. Then, what a beautiful sonnet you will write!

Download or read book You May Think Life Stinks but It Could Be Verse written by Steven C. Stoker and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-05-29 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Look through any neighborhood, pick out any random country farmhouse, search through any military barracks, screen any school enrollment sheet and you can find them-"closet" poets! They scribble their innermost thoughts down in notebooks, on envelopes, even on napkins and then stash them away in secret places! Why? Because those sentiments are a part of them-a part they want to recall later, whenever they feel the need to relive those treasured moments, recapture the emotions, and savor those extraordinary experiences again. Such poetry runs the gamut from horrendous to brilliant, but that does not matter. The quality of the work is unimportant! What is important is that someone out there has chosen the written word to create a literary "painting" that tries to capture a moment in time and space to save it for posterity. You May Think Life Stinks But It Could Be Verse is a collection of one man's meandering psyche. It contains a lot of chaff but an occasional precious kernel of wheat can be found that can be useful in nourishing the reader's psyche as well. Read, enjoy, and let the critics do the analysis!

Book excerpt: “The thing is… I’ll be fine if friendship is what’s best for us.” “What if you could be better than fine, Kick?” After my world imploded eight years ago, I fought my way out of the darkness—opened a popular coffeehouse, raised three amazing kids, fixed my health. But, the pains of the past still haunt me. Then Professor Thomas Harrison walks into my café. He’s six feet of hotness and all kinds of chiseled grumpiness in a suit. When someone vandalizes my business, Thomas sticks around to give a statement and makes sure I’m safe. He floors me by giving a crap about my life and health. No one does this. Ever. Despite our scorching chemistry, I keep him at arm’s length. Thomas makes it clear he’s devoted to his work and something else. Something huge that he’s hiding. Between his mysterious calls and running off at a moment’s notice, it’s clear he has zero time for “extracurricular activities” too. But also I have secrets and like that he’s not aware of the old me. I only know that when Thomas is around my world makes sense again. He might be the key to helping me start over, but first I have to confront my past. Kick Start is book one in a slow burn, seasoned, steamy Romance trilogy with all the feels.

Download or read book The Fragrant Companions written by Li Yu and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two young gentry women meet by chance at a nunnery in Yangzhou, where they fall in love at first sight. After they exchange poetry and recognize each other’s literary talents, their emotional bond deepens. They conduct a mock wedding ceremony at the nunnery and hatch a plan to spend the rest of their lives together. Their schemes are stymied by a series of obstacles, but in the end the two women find an unlikely resolution—a ménage-à-trois marriage. The Fragrant Companions is the most significant work of literature that portrays female same-sex love in the entire premodern Chinese tradition. Written in 1651 by Li Yu, one of the most inventive and irreverent literary figures of seventeenth-century China, this play is at once an unconventional romantic comedy, a barbed satire, and a sympathetic portrayal of love between women. It offers a sensitive portrait of the two women’s passion for each other, depicts their intellectual pursuits and resourcefulness, and celebrates their partial triumph over social convention. At the same time, Li caustically mocks the imperial examination system and deflates the idealized image of the male scholar. The Fragrant Companions is both an indispensable source for students and scholars of gender and sexuality in premodern China and a compelling work of literature for all readers interested in China’s rich theatrical traditions.
