"And strew faint sweetness from some old
Egyptian's fine worm-eaten shroud
Which breaks to dust when once unrolled;
Or shredded perfume, like a cloud
From closet long to quiet vowed,
With mothed and dropping arras hung,
Mouldering her lute and books among,
As when a queen, long dead, was young.

"Heap Cassia, Sandal-buds and Stripes" - Robert Browning

Bookwomble Browning's poem seemed to fit with the tone of Stoker's tale of a long dead Egyptian queen. 6y

My newest #poetry acquisition. I‘ve loved his work since I discovered it in 7th grade. #HopIntoSpring @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @vkois88

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I really should read more poetry ☺️☺️ 6y
wanderinglynn What a beautiful edition! 😍📚 6y
Lcsmcat @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks It‘s a matter of finding poets who speak to you, which is highly individual. More so than with novels, in my opinion. 6y

epsitawithane I like Browning. His poems are really a series of mental acrobatics. My favourite poems are porphyrias lover and the Bishop orders his tomb at st Praxed's . 6y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I‘m reading Milk and Honey and mehhh is that really even poetry?? 🤷🏼‍♀️ 6y
Lcsmcat @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Have you tried Billy Collins? His poetry is accessible, often funny, but isn‘t shallow. 6y
vkois88 The only poetry I've ever really been able to get into was Shel Silverstein 6y
Lcsmcat @vkois88 Billy Collins is Shel Silverstein for grownups. 😀 6y
