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?

Re: favorite poem
I've always liked "This Is Just to Say" by William Carlos Williams. Plus I just like his name.
Re: favorite poem
John Keats is probably my favorite poet. I like most of the Romantics.
Billy Collins is great too though.

Re: favorite poem
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."
