Sinossi

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. 
The Irish are known the world over as friendly and engaging talkers with a word here and a few words there to each and every soul they meet.  Their poets dazzle with talent and verse that few other nations dare compete with.  What follows demonstrates why.
