    Gibran Khalil Gibran was born on 6th January 1883 in the village of Bsharri, Beirut Vilayet, then part of the Ottoman Empire 
His mother took him and his siblings to the United States in 1895 where he was enrolled into a Boston school and his creative talents soon noted.  He was sent home to be schooled at the Collège de la Sagesse in Beirut but returned to Boston following the death of his youngest sister in 1902.  Within a year his mother had also died. 
In 1904, Gibran's drawings were displayed for the first time and, a year later, his first book, in Arabic, was published in New York City.  With financial help from a benefactress he studied art in Paris from 1908 and here his path crossed with dissident Syrian exiles.  Over the years he would meet many more like-minded exiles who were exploring ways to overthrow the yoke of the Ottoman Empire.   
By 1911 he had settled in New York working on his drawings and paintings which were now being regularly exhibited. His writing was also attracting much attention and gaining an audience.   
His first book in English, ‘The Madman’ became an international phenomenon.  Whilst his writing has overshadowed his visual works there is no doubt that a copy of ‘The Mad Man’ is never far from any bookshelf.  This and other works have ensured his stature as an artist is world-wide and that it continues into these more modern times.  Gibran was regarded as a literary rebel and a leading figure of the Arabic literary Renaissance and made influential contributions to Western poetry, stories and thought. 
Khalil Gibran died on 10th April 1931 in New York City from cirrhosis and incipient tuberculosis in one lung.  He was 48.

    The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives.  Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. 
But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. 
In this volume we explore Artists and whether they be painters, novelists and the like were as equally adept and famed for their poetry and verse.
