    There is this poem that I fell in love with a few months ago and I can't recall it now. It was a relatively long poem about a girl, written by a man. The girl was promiscuous and eventually killed herself. The man didn't find out until a few months later. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

    I am looking for a poem that I thought was titled " Dance Alone"
    The Author leads you to believe that they are in a controlling relationship and refers to being guided like a horse with reins and goes on to say that over time the rope is starting to frey and they will soon break free from the reins. The last sentence in the poem simply states " and in the end, I will dance alone"
    This may not be the title as I cannot locate it anywere on the inetrnet. I was really hoping to find it to give to a friend in need. Hope someone can help!

    Can anyone help find a poem that I lost several years ago. It describes that when you meet someone new they have their cloak surrounding them, the cloak gradually slips and bit by bit the true person is revealed. Thank you if you can assist.

    Looking for a poem I read once by a male author, relatively long and very reflective/seemingly autobiographical: the poem is about the speaker as a young boy/teenager with a bunch of friends at a gas station or a rest stop or something like that somewhere in the Northeast USA. I think part of the poem is that the speaker has to go back for something or is otherwise separated from his friends. The tone of the poem is that sort of, " Well, we were so young, we didn't really understand life yet" reflection. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I am looking for a poem for my husband. It was one his brother liked. He has passed a way and my husband would like to find it if possible. He doesn't know the author but does remember 1 line, the ending. It is " the stallion was blind" It is about a black stallion but I have searched for one with that name and similar ones but have not yet found it. Anyone have any clues?

    I work in a large public library and we have an elderly gentleman who is organising his own Humanist funeral ceremony. He is very anxious to trace a poem, the opening lines of which he believes to be 'As I stood on the bridge at the change of seasons...' He is adamant that it is not the similar famous line penned by Longfellow. The poem that he is trying to track down has no religious overtones. We have explored all the usual avenues, including The Poetry Library and the British Humanist Association, and have drawn a resounding blank. Any ideas?

    Hey Guys,
    I am looking for any funny poets or poetry that I could read aloud in my communications class. I was thinking that I would rather not get too dramatic, but keep it light hearted and funny. Thanks for the help!

    Please help me find this poem.
    It is about a woman whose lover is killed in an accident before their wedding
    She gets a stonemason to start carving the headstone for his grave and he leaves space at the bottom and the poem ends when she has taken her own life and he adds her name to the headstone.
    It reads like a classical poem.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thank you

    Hello,
    Does anyone know in which Walter Rinder book I could find the poem " What is Love?"

    I would greatly appreciate this information! Our library system only has one of his books (Love is an Attitude- and it doesn't contain the poem) and right now I only want to buy the one that has " What is Love?" in it.
    Thank you!
