October felt like a rough month for me and this book. Favorite poems from this month were "When You Are Old" by W.B. Yeats, "Jewels In My Hand" by Sasha Moorsom, and "Hope" by Philip Booth. A special shout out to "The Falcon To The Falconer" by Jonathon Steffen.

Less than a 100 pages to go of actual poems! I’m so excited to finish this book!

Wow, many good poems in September! Here were my all time favorites, but it was hard to choose... "Friendship After Love" by Ella Wheeler Wilcox, "Egypt's Might Is Tumbled Down" by Mary Coleridge, "Piano" by D.H. Lawrence, "At Parting" by Anne Ridler. Shout outs to "Everyone Sang" by Siegfried Sassoon, "No Worst, There Is None" by Gerard Manley Hopkins, and "Yesterday He Still Looked In My Eyes" by Marina Tsvetaeva.

The best poems of August were “Madam’s Life A Piece In Bloom” by W.E. Henley, “A Subaltern’s Love - Song” by Sir John Betjeman, and “Sonnet 18” by William Shakespeare. Special shout out to William Blake this month for “Auguries Of Innocence” and “London” along with “Tamer And Hawk” by Thom Gunn and “Recension Day” by Duncan Forbes.
