I have been reading his works for years and love his sense of humour and the ease with which one can memorize the words, even the very lengthy poems like Lord Lundy and Matilda. I have recommended them to a friend, a high school teacher, who finds they are ideal for her young students who find many other poets very uninspiring.
Lucretia Vandemark (4/8/2006 10:19:00 AM)
When we were about ages 8 and 11, my brother and I found 'Jim' in a textbook (one of many old ones my father, a high school history teacher, had on the shelf) .
We memorized it and recited it often for friends and family.
Now I'm teaching it to my grandchildren.
It's a great poem!
Lu
