Do you mean you would like to know the names of some good English poets? Or good names?
Well, I will assume for the time being you would like the names of some good English poets. Good in my opinion, since I am the one answering this, thank G-d and her Majesty!
Shakespeare, John Donne, Milton, Sir Philip Sydney (sic?), Marlowe, Spenser of Scotland, Yeats the Anglo-Irishman, Keats, Elisabeth Barrett Browing, Robert Browing, Robert "Bobbie" Burns of Scotland, The Rossettis, and many many more...
But it's time for dinner, lads and lassies, men and womyn, ladies and gentlemen. Please excuse me, one and all! I'll be back.

William Butler Yeats is the best. James Joyce is different in his art and Samuel Taylor Coleridge is a good epic poet.
