By Hazel Felleman - Poems That Live Forever (1965-06-17) [Hardcover]

Here is a fine, thoughtful selection of poems that live forever in our minds and hearts. Some will be remembered perhaps by title -- the Highwayman, or On HIs Blindness, or The Purple Cow. Perhaps we will think of the author first- Emily Dickinson, or Ogden Nash, or Shakespeare Sometimes it is the opening lines that are memorable: " Oh, to be in England, Now that April's there," (Robert Browning) or "Blessings on thee, little man, " ( JOhn Greenleaf Whittier) or "Laugh , and the world laughs with you. Cry and you cry along." (Ella Wheeler Wilcox)
