I have a book titled "Poems That Make A Grown Women Cry" my brother suggested that I buy it so I did. It's kind of embarrassing because of the title, but it's a collection of celebrity's favorite poems. Judi Dench has one, as well as many others. The book shows you which celebrities have chosen the poems, and the poems are typed out.

I wish I had more for you but The Complete Works of Edgar Allan Poe is my absolute favorite. I'm a huge Poe fan so having all of his poetry and short stories together is perfect for me. There's also the 100 Greatest American Poems I think is the name of it.

I have recently become aware of my odd fascination with poems on death. “The Goblin Market” by Christina Rossetti exposed me to the comforting side of death when she penned this wonderful piece.

I think my favorite poetry book has to be "Lucy Negro: Redux". It has irreverent parts, sensual wording, thoughts and experiences on race, and I can't tell whether it celebrates or shades William Shakespeare, but that's what intrigues me so much. In a more superficial way, I also love how quotable it is for social media (when you want to be provocative, of course)

I am a fan of modern poetry and like reading those books which purely illustrates modern life. My favourite poetry book is The waste Land by T.S. Elliot.
