Summary: A great book! Interesting and informational!
Review: This book is really great. As a begining poet the book was encouraging and informational. It made me want to write more poems and it gave the know-how to write better. This is the book for you if you're looking for something that's not so boring you have to force yourself to read, but not meaningless dribble either. I really enjoyed it and I recommend it to all beginning poets!

Review: This is the best book I've read on poetry writing (and I've read a lot of 'em). It helped and inspired me to write so many poems and I learned so much from the book and the exercises included.

Summary: Wonderful Book
Review: What a helpful, inspiring book. The author really helps to make the writing process more productive and less intimidating. He clearly explains how to write different types of poems and gives excellent examples of the types of poems that he talks about. He makes the process much less mysterious and in the process, he inspires the reader. I hadn't had the courage to write any poetry for years. This book has helped me to finally start writing again.
