You don't have to copy and paste it or anything, just tell the title of the poem and who it's by. Thanks!

My favorite is "The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
I really like the questioning nature of this poem. It's really different than his other poems; I don't really like most of his other works.

Oh Gawd... That's difficult!
I would have to say:
The sonnets to Orphius.
By: Rainer Maria Rilke.
I have always loved an obscure little poem By:
Oliver Wendel Holmes. It's called "Under the Violets."
I love;
Byron, Baudelaire, Sexton, Plath, Lowell, Donne, Hart Crane, James Joyce, Sappho, Alexander Pope, Andrew Marvel's definition of Love is breath taking, T.S. Eliot, Sir Phillip Sidney.
Once again someone has asked the impossible of me as I cannot narrow this down to only one...

My favorite poem is "The Blues in Your Own Backyard" by Patricia Ferrell. It is about doing drugs.
Another poem I love is "Miss October" by Rachel Loden. It is about Hugh Hefner.

I have too many to list, but on my top ten is Walt Whitman's "Song of Myself," Poe's "Raven" and "Annabel Lee" Frost's "Two Roads Diverged in a Wood" and Milton's "Paradise Lost" (yes, that was a poem).
