Poetic Flair

Maya Angelou proclaiming She knows why the caged bird sings While a raven Says forevermore Brings to mind Edgar Allan Poe Sir Walter Raleigh did inspire with his poem "Like truthless dreams my Joys expire" Emily Dickenson gave us many wonderful verses "Apparently with no surprise" being among the first For sonnets with poetic flair None can compare To the great William Shakespeare
