I can't memorize anything so I'm not even trying, but I do enjoy reading the selections. I like poetry in small doses and I tend to prefer conventional poetry (read: not modern free verse), so this book is perfect. Reading poetry is different than reading prose, and I find poetry challenging enough that I don't spend much time at it. So this book is great for picking up, reading a poem, then putting it down to absorb the poem. no reviews | add a review
