How do you know if a publishing company is Ligit?

insist on telling you they are a writer in their answer? Often when it has little or no relevance to the question asked.

Do you enjoy reading or hearing poems? Would you recite one? Does poetry make you uncomfortable or does it iinterest and excite you? Do you like or dislike poetry in general? Do you associate poetry only with school?

I think it was Dr. Seuss, and I know it's NOT the Lorax. The trees were in danger from something the people were doing and if the trees died the sea would rush in. {Kinda like our ozone layer}

Ok, so I want to start reading these books. So far I know of the Hobbit, and The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. But now im finding out that there are other books; The Silmarilon (sp?), The Book of lost tales, The History of middle earth...

My question is, which one should I read first (and what order should i read them) in order to get the maximum effect of the story? And are there other books that I didnt mention?

My neice asked me to help her with her English Homework, but my major was math, so I have no idea!!
She needs to identify .. alliteration, assonance, consonance, Rhyme and Rhythm in the following poem

THE CANONIZATION.
by John Donne


FOR God's sake hold your tongue, and let me love ;
Or chide my palsy, or my gout ;
My five gray hairs, or ruin'd fortune flout ;
With wealth your state, your mind with arts improve ;
Take you a course, get you a place,
Observe his Honour, or his Grace ;
Or the king's real, or his stamp'd face
Contemplate ; what you will, approve,
So you will let me love.

Alas ! alas ! who's injured by my love?
What merchant's ships have my sighs drown'd?
Who says my tears have overflow'd his ground?
When did my colds a forward spring remove?
When did the heats which my veins fill
Add one more to the plaguy bill?
Soldiers find wars, and lawyers find out still
Litigious men, which quarrels move,
Though she and I do love.

Call's what you will, we are made such by love ;
Call her one, me another fly,
We're tapers too, and at our own cost die,
And we in us find th' eagle and the dove.
The phoenix riddle hath more wit
By us ; we two being one, are it ;
So, to one neutral thing both sexes fit.
We die and rise the same, and prove
Mysterious by this love.

We can die by it, if not live by love,
And if unfit for tomb or hearse
Our legend be, it will be fit for verse ;
And if no piece of chronicle we prove,
We'll build in sonnets pretty rooms ;
As well a well-wrought urn becomes
The greatest ashes, as half-acre tombs,
And by these hymns, all shall approve
Us canonized for love ;

And thus invoke us, "You, whom reverend love
Made one another's hermitage ;
You, to whom love was peace, that now is rage ;
Who did the whole world's soul contract, and drove
Into the glasses of your eyes ;
So made such mirrors, and such spies,
That they did all to you epitomize—
Countries, towns, courts beg from above
A pattern of your love."

...about a boyfriend (or husband) who takes his girlfriend (or wife) to a psychoanalyst because they are fighting with each other (arguing) all the time, never agreeing on anything... because the boyfriend (husband) tries to control his girlfriend (wife) all the time, he is the dominating type. but the girl (wife) then falls for the psychoanalyst... this should be funny, with twists of situations and expectations... what the man is trying to hide is that he himself has been this psychoanalyst's patient some years ago because of troubles with a previous girlfriend and they are now friends. but the girl (wife) shouldn't know all these...
what do you think? would you read such book?
