Anyone know a well known poet who wrote a well known ballad? If so can you give me the name of the poet and the name of the poem?

I like Ezra Pound's "Ballad of the Goodly Fere," but it's not to everyone's taste:

I think Helen Adam's "I Love My Love" is one of the most amazing ballads ever written:

I don't want to do your homework for you... but I'll give you a hint. Why not try opening a search engine and typing in famous poetry ballad as search terms. Alternatively try "poetry forms" and "ballad."
