Aus dem Briefwechsel zwischen Heinrich Heine und seinem Verleger Julius Campe.

Als der junge Verleger Julius Campe 1826 dem damals noch recht unbekannten Dichter Heine die Veröffentlichung der "Harzreise" anbietet, ist das der Beginn einer lebenslangen "Literarischen Ehe", die von inniger Zuneigung, aber ebenso von heftigen Kämpfen um Honorare, Manuskriptlieferungszeiten und die Zensurfrage geprägt war.

To see the world through the eyes of the child's eye. This is the challenge of any good poetry.

Edgar Allan Poe's classic narrative poem recounts the story of raven's visit to a mourning narrator. The narrator laments the loss of his love, Lenore.

Most of the stories and poems in this audiobook were compiled from handwritten notes in journals I've been keeping for several years. The title story, "The Waterfall", is a powerful study of loss, acceptance, and growth. In "Butterflies", a young boy learns a lesson about acceptance and appreciation of what he has been given. "The Lighthouse" is a moving tale that's as close to poetry as prose and offers a beautifully upbeat ending. "Grandma Brown" is a nostalgic and emotionally moving tale of familial love.

Este conjunto de poemas puede parecer inconexo o inconsistente. Y en buena medida lo es: No hay unidad temática ni un esquema fijo predeterminado. Ni siquiera una voz única, dado que reúnen casi una década de trabajo en esto de escribir versos. Disparejo: Visceral a ratos, prolijo y apegado a lo formal en otros momentos. Poesía que reniega de apellidos, de los "ismos" y de las taxonomías mañosas. Poesía a secas, con las manos vacías y sin cruzar los dedos.

Gabriele d’Annunzio è creatore eccelso di atmosfere dense di suggestioni. Dal mistero sacro dei monti della "Sera fiesolana" all’incanto della "Pioggia nel pineto", dalle visioni marine di "Undulna" ai giardini sognanti di "Hortus Conclusus", il cuore del poeta batte in armonia con il grande cuore della natura.

Y si estoy aquí,No es porque sé caminar o porque al norte Le brillan los ojos, el corazón no sabe deEsas cosas, y esta vez, yo lo he seguido...Aquí estoyY desconozco la forma en que me pasa,Podría lastimarme horas y horas,Y aunque las palomas, y aunque el trenRuidoso de mi pueblo intente despertarme,No conseguirían más que atarmeDe pies y manos, para tu memoria.Aquí estoy y me quedo.No seré nunca más el mismo.
