🙂 My favourite response to that question, “Are you ready for this conversation?” (Just kidding :-))I’d earnestly suggest works TS Eliot, Wordsworth, Shelley, Whitman, Yeats, Marvell, Spenser, Tennyson, Keats, Donne, Herbert, Shakespeare, Blake, Milton, Chaucer, Dickinson, Brontë Byron, Coleridge, Poe, Milton, Dryden, Dr. Seuss, Shel Silverstein from my bag of favorites.

I like finding gems from old college textbooks actually — works of Sylvia Plath, W.H Auden, Walt Whitman…. I also like Il Postino/Pablo Neruda. Recently, I enjoyed the poems of Rupi Kaur.
