I don't read much poetry to be honest, except what gets posted here, but I do have a favourite poem. "If" by Rudyard Kipling. Although in the last line, he refers to the fact that if you can be/live in the way described throughout the rest of the poem, you'll be a man. I think it defines a way of being that transcends sexual differences. I would feel happy to be able to say I have lived my life by these 'guidelines' by the time I get to the end of my life. Just like Dialyns quote from Joseph Campbell, it has that ring of "of course, how right, why didn't I think of writing that?" So, what's your favourite poem, one that inspires or moves you, or whatever it is that lifts it up above all the other poems that you have come across? Shanna :-)
