My favorite English-language poem is "De Profundis" by none other than C. S. Lewis. My favorite French poem at the moment is Victor Hugo's "Demain, dès l'aube".

Yours?

I've always liked "This Is Just to Say" by William Carlos Williams. Plus I just like his name.

John Keats is probably my favorite poet. I like most of the Romantics.

Billy Collins is great too though.

A+ work, Stego Lily. I love Mary Oliver so hard. I'm going through an extended slam poetry phase and I love Buddy Wakefield and, in angsty moments, Andrea Gibson (though I love her less than I used to). My two favorite poems are probably Buddy Wakefield's "Hurling Crowbirds at Mockingbars" and Marvin Bell's "To Dorothy."
