Poetry for Pleasure by Ian Macnaghten Parsons Pdf

Poetry for Pleasure is an anthology representative of the great wealth of English poetry written between the sixteenth century and the present day. The book is arranged in fifteen sections, each devoted to a different theme. The first two of these comprise verse written mainly for, or about, the young or the very young. Subsequent sections deal with such varied subjects as country pleasures, love and friendship, music and dancing, the sea, time, age, sleep, and death. In fact they cover almost the whole range of human experience. Inevitably, a number of poems will be familiar to most readers, but some will be new to many.

Poetry for Pleasure by Christopher J. Chetta Pdf

I was born in Copiague Long Island where I lived until I was 6 years old. I have a lot of memories from back then, friend's names, where they lived and things we've done. I remember things like my father teaching me to ride a bike to sticking a car key in an electrical socket. I still remember how that shock felt (OUCH). My parents bought a house on Long Island in Brentwood and we moved on my 6th birthday. I remember running through the very high uncut grass and weeds like I was running through a corn field. I went to all Brentwood schools until I graduated High School. I first dicovered my talent with poetry in fourth grade when my teacher wanted us to memorize the famous TREES by Joyce Kilmer. I was the only one that recited it without pausing or forgetting any verses. Then it really hit me when our teacher gave us 15 spelling words to home and learn to spell them and use them in a sentence. And that's when I wrote "The Bloody Knee". The very first poem I ever wrote. When I read that in class and was finished my teacher stood up and clapped and so did my classmates. That was the most proudest moment in my entire childhood growing up. How I wish I still had that poem today.

Half-Bads in White Regalia by Cody Caetano Pdf

*LONGLISTED FOR CANADA READS 2023* NATIONAL BESTSELLER A family tries to learn from the mistakes of past generations in this whirlwind memoir from a wholly original new voice. The Caetanos move into a doomed house in the highway village of Happyland before an inevitable divorce pulls Cody’s parents in separate directions. His mom, Mindimooye, having discovered her Anishinaabe birth family and Sixties Scoop origin story, embarks on a series of fraught relationships and fresh starts. His dad, O Touro, a Portuguese immigrant and drifter, falls back into “big do, little think” behaviour, despite his best intentions. Left alone at the house in Happyland, Cody and his siblings must fend for themselves, even as the pipes burst and the lights go out. His protective big sister, Kris, finds inventive ways to put food on the table, and his stoic big brother, Julian, facilitates his regular escapes into the world of video games. As life yanks them from one temporary solution to the next, they steal moments of joy and resist buckling under “baddie” temptations aplenty. Capturing the chaos and wonder of a precarious childhood, Cody Caetano delivers a fever dream coming-of-age garnished with a slang all his own. Half-Bads in White Regalia is an unforgettable debut that unspools a tangled family history with warmth, humour, and deep generosity.
