Hi Barbarian, how you doing? Yea I like Kipling. Don't know Four Feet, will look it up....
Now I must go by some other round, —
Which I shall never find —
Somewhere that does not carry the sound
Of Four-Feet trotting behind.
From Kipling's Four Feet
If you've ever loved and lost an animal friend, this expresses the feeling perfectly.
So do read these in Dutch, Italian, English? Is Nostradamus poetry? I know it is supposed to be prophetic but I'm not familiar with him. I'm off to sleep now.Ah yes, i love Dante's Inferno, Nostradamus and Paradise Lost but you know what i think Irish Music is also great poetry, like Rocky Road to Dublin
Hello acf - Welcome to CF. Who are some of your go to poets?For me good poetry touches the heart and speaks to someone regardless of form. It's hard since poetry can be so personal yet also universal.
Hi Jack - I hear what you're saying but come on, is everything that is memorable also good, true, just, virtuous?To answer the original question of "what is good art or poetry" --- to me the answer is simple ---- >>> it is memorable.
Emily Dickinson defined poetry this way: “If I read a book and it makes my whole body so cold no fire can warm me I know that is poetry. If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry. These are the only way I know it. Is there any other way?”
Like I said earlier, good poetry is "memorable".

Maybe I'm just an insensitive clodEmily Dickinson defined poetry this way: “If I read a book and it makes my whole body so cold no fire can warm me I know that is poetry.

Hi ewq - Emily D was a great poetess and she's written some very good poetry. Maybe I'm just an insensitive clodbut no that's not what 'good' poetry does for me. For me there may be a warming, an awakening, maybe a tingle, a touch, a vivifying, maybe a smile, maybe sorrow.
I'm not even sure if, 'having the top of ones head taken off' can be considered to be a 'good' thing?
YepNever heard the expression, "That blew me away!"?
