Intended For All Those Who Love Poetry, Including Teachers, Readers, Writers, And Students, The Making Of A Poem Will Be Especially Valued By Those Who Feel That An Understanding Of Formsonnet, Ballad, Villanelle, Sestina, Etc.Would Enhance Their Appreciation Of Poetry, But Are Daunted By The Terms, The Names, And The Histories Of Various Poetic Forms. This Anthology Draws The Reader In, By Example And Explanation, To The Excitement And Entertainment Of These Forms.

Contemporary Poets Can Be Seen Here Trying Out The Same Forms That Poets Used Hundreds Of Years Ago, But In The New Circumstances Of A Complicated Modern World. In This Way Poetic Form Is Illustrated Not As A Series Of Rules, But As A Passionate Conversation In Which Every Reader Of Poetry Can Become Involved.
