Good-bye, proud world! I'm going home: Thou art not my friend, and I'm not thine. Long through thy weary crowds I roam; A river-ark on the ocean brine, Long I've been tossed like the driven foam: But now, proud world! I'm going home. Good-bye to Flattery's fawning face; To Grandeur with his wise grimace; To upstart Wealth's averted eye; To supple Office, low and high; To crowded halls, to court and street; To frozen hearts and hasting feet; To those...

In this interesting volume, readers are introduced to poems as primary sources that can teach about history and the lives of those who wrote them. Both historical and modern examples are included with accompanying...

My book Poems was written and so titled because there was no other title deemed to be more appropriate than Poems. Poems means an arrangement of words written or spoken, and I want my words to arrange someone's lifestyle with hope and encouragement. My writings envelope many different manners of people's emotions, and it seemed appropriate to not give it another name. How can this book help you? Males and females who are struggling and trying to...

The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms, But which will bloom most constantly?"

I started reading all kinds of poetry I could find and slowly I started to understand my taste for some styles and poets. Later I started writing my own poems and the first of them was A Paixão", that for some reason have not been translated yet in English, but it is a beautiful poem. I see myself not as a genuine poet...
