One of my cousins recently reminded me of how much my Grandma Joyce Spackman Jensen and her family wrote poems. I was never really into poetry. The only poems I purposely read were assigned at school or church. I remember reading Shakespeare's Sonnets, Robert Frost's "
The Road Not Taken",
Emily Dickinson,
e e cummings,
Edgar Allan Poe,
Walt Whitman,
William Wordsworth, and maybe some others, but I never purposely read poetry except
Shel Silverstein. I really liked Shel Silverstein as a kid, especially "Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out".
What is your favorite poem/poet?
