100 Poems to Lift Your Spirits
Inspiring And Heartwarming Verses, From Old Favorites To Modern Classics
by Leslie Pockell with Celia Johnson
Sometimes you just need a little pick-me-up to get through the day and that’s just what this little book offers.
You don’t have to be an avid poetry reader to enjoy the sentiments and imagery in this collection of classic and
modern poetry. The poems are divided into four main categories: nature, nonsense, spirituality, and the human
connection. The poets who are sampled in this book are very diverse, ranging from William Butler Yeats, Robert
Frost, Shel Silverstein, Bobby McFerrin to June Carter Cash. Also included are the words for the Gilbert and
Sullivan classic, "I am the very model of a modern major general." That alone is guaranteed to put a smile on
your face, but the rest of this book eill delight you with many other lighthearted and uplifting verses. |
