Euro-Poetry Poem by Joyce Hemsley

France is a country of poetical talent
Beautiful language unfolds...
Romantic love in classical fashion
Dating back to Voltaire and his prose.

The eighteenth century saw poets from Paris
They wrote about France and the Seine
And many other Parisian wonders
That shone o'er that fertile plain.

Yes, France was a country of talent...
In England Wordsworth topped the scene
With Coleridge, another fine poet
Writing lyrical verse on pastures green.

Shakespeare's plays, and poetical quotes
Were 'the best' - regarded as the cream
Europe gained her fair share of success
With poetical talent of high esteem.
