  This collection arguably contains some of the most charming lyrics ever written in English. The childlike simplicity and trust of these artless verses are unique.Blake’s poems can be enjoyed, not only for their historical importance in an age which was fiercely proud of its genius and its traditions, but also for their simple and beautiful expression of “two contrary states of the human soul.”Songs of Innocence was originally a complete collection of twenty-three poems, first printed in 1789. In 1794, a composite collection entitled Songs of Innocence and of Experience, containing forty-seven poems, was published.

  A new book of poetry from internationally acclaimed, award-winning and bestselling author Margaret Atwood 
  In Dearly, Margaret Atwood’s first collection of poetry in over a decade, Atwood addresses themes such as love, loss, the passage of time, the nature of nature and - zombies. Her new poetry is introspective and personal in tone, but wide-ranging in topic. In poem after poem, she casts her unique imagination and unyielding, observant eye over the landscape of a life carefully and intuitively lived. 
   
  While many are familiar with Margaret Atwood’s fiction—including her groundbreaking and bestselling novels The Handmaid’s Tale, The Testaments, Oryx and Crake, among others—she has, from the beginning of her career, been one of our most significant contemporary poets. And she is one of the very few writers equally accomplished in fiction and poetry.  This collection is a stunning achievement that will be appreciated by fans of her novels and poetry readers alike.

  Roses and Thorns - 100 Poems for...

  Angelina Scriptor

  Angelina Scriptor began writing poetry when she was only a child, but one fateful day, she decided to look back. It was only then that she realized she had something that most poetry books lacked. While still only a teenager, Angelina noticed that life encompasses more than the simple routes of love and loss that other poets tend to focus on. Life holds both hidden beauties and traumatizing horrors, tucked intricately within its own pages, jumbled amongst themselves to further hide the signs of their existence. 
  Life is telling a story, day in and day out. Slowly, it builds and breaks each of its characters, leaving them to individually collect the pieces of the puzzle that they constantly yearn to complete. And, in the meantime, they are left to create their own stories, whether they do so while coming together with others, or if they’re left to trudge down the dark path of life alone, barely making it to their next sentence. 
  If you choose to read this book of poems, you will be met with many stories that Scriptor experienced over the years, whether they be her own, or those she uncovered while peering down the path of another. 
  This book holds not only the beautiful rosebuds of life’s growth, but also its sharp, threatening thorns. Every page is left to fulfill another journey, never relying on that of another to do so. Sometimes, words sit seemingly simple, but more times than not, its vines will burrow deep into the root of life, tugging at its very existence. 
  That is for each reader to determine for themselves, may they decide to seek the answer.
