‘A dime a dozen’ as known in America, is perhaps equal to the English ‘cheap as chips’ but whatever the lingua franca of your choice in this series we hereby submit ‘A Rhyme a Dozen’ as 12 poems on many given subjects that are a well-rounded gathering, maybe even an essential guide, from the knowing pens of classic poets and their beautifully spoken verse to the comfort of your ears.

In the midst of bombs and bullets, trenches and trauma, the soldiers of World War I, and those observing the horrors taking place from home, took pen to paper to record their experiences in verse. These poems - considered the greatest written during WWI and some of the greatest poetry of the twentieth century - show the horror of war but also shine a light on the strength of human courage, bravery, and virtue.

Dois ensaios em que Tristão de Alencar de Araripe Júnior explora personagens públicas de seu tempo. Em "O fetiche", a Rainha Vitória está no centro de seus comentários (críticos), ao tempo em que ela celebrava seu jubileu de ouro. "Viagens de Gulliver", por sua vez, nada fala da obra de Johnattan Swift, mas a obra clássica que empresta seu título ao ensaio serve como metáfora para enaltecer a figura do pedagogo Carlos Jansen, que valorizava a literatura infanto-juvenil entre os jovens estudantes brasileiros do final do século XIX.

In the quiet moments between breaths, where memory lingers and time falters, lies a world often unseen—a tapestry woven from the echoes of what is left behind. Unfinished Things invites you to wander through this realm, where absence has shape and silence has voice.

Earth Light is a collection of original poems that highlight the boundless peace, hope, forgiveness, and everlasting love that God provides. Based on scripture, the purpose of this book is to fill the reader's heart with God's awesome promises and glorious grace.

Poetically Yours est une anthologie en hommage aux compositeurs et interprètes rencontrés et découverts au travers du web magazine Sounds So Beautiful. L’ouvrage compile une série d’écrits autour de thèmes existentiels pour des artistes… et pour le commun des mortels en général. Je contemple ainsi dans mon livre les idées de conscience de soi et de confiance en soi, sans écarter la foi et le sens de la reconnaissance.

Hay obras maestras, como el Quijote, que los autores empiezan sin plan preciso ni determinado: van haciendo de la necesidad virtud, rizando el rizo de la invención. Pero la Comedia pertenece a otra categoría: es el resultado de la deliberación y la perseverancia de Dante. Exiliado de Florencia y condenado a la hoguera, fue incluso contumaz, pues insistió en el imperdonable "error" de crear algo profundamente nuevo y personal.

Life is frenetic. Everything is running faster which usually means we are running later. Everything should have been done 5 minutes ago or better still yesterday. We are slowly falling behind, overwhelmed by busy lives in an ever-exacting world. In these more modern times, time is everything. There’s never enough of it. Classic poets down the decades and centuries have wisely observed that there are many things, both great and small, that bring a sense of stillness, an aura of calm, a chance to re-engage with our feelings and emotions purely by taking time for moments that matter.

In A Symphony in Twilight, an anthology, Forester uses free verse, a style of poetry that does not conform to established rules of meter or rhyme to create a flowing, conversational tone with listeners. Portraying a wide range experiences, he writes about the sea, the farm, the cities, and of the experiences of real people. While not overtly transcendental, Forester writes about the interconnectedness of all life and the divinity in each individual.

The Fourth Step is a huge literary project recorded to the music of more than forty artists and fifty-one instrumental tracks spanning over five and a half hours. Prose, poetical prose and lyrics combine in an unusual way to tell a story of love that bridges mystical experience and human affection. The borders of love blur, stretch and expand, or contract and enclose, freeing us or enslaving us. They extend from boundless and selfless to personal and narrow, from bliss to sorrow, from joy to pain. They can make us powerful or powerless, limit us or make us limitless.

De comum, estes dois ensaios têm o mesmo objeto: a arte. Em "Estética e eletricidade", o alvo do autor são os críticos das artes plásticas, cujo conhecimento de ciência acaba por turvar a adequada avaliação das obras. Já em "Flaubert", o autor francês é que está na mira da crítica dura – incomum – à sua obra. Teria de fato autor do célebre "Madame Bovary" desmerecido o prestígio que alcançou?

"Um livro como o que agora oferece o poeta Alberto de Oliveira (...) não é um vômito de histerismo orgiático; esse livro é um perfume" – eis o tom deste ensaio do crítico Araripe Jr. sobre livro "Versos e rimas", de seu contemporâneo Alberto de Oliveira, marcado pelo erotismo e pela musicalidade de seus versos. E música é justamente o tema do segundo ensaio aqui reunido, onde o autor questiona a importância dada a esse gênero artístico: "A baqueta de um maestro vale hoje mais do que um cetro."

As the 1900’s begin women are in a difficult situation. Whatever the pretence of society the reality for almost all women is that they are second class and the property of men. Whilst women have created enduring works of literature and poetry for centuries, much has remained hidden and voiceless. But technology and the mass distribution of printed materials has allowed new ideas and thoughts to circulate, to demand a voice. In this volume their talents and voices speak with determination, wisdom, courage and love on many subjects through their extraordinary verse.

In life’s kitbag of essentials food and drink are right at the top. Their variety and ways to consume are a wonder, both of nature’s offerings and human creativity. For our classic poets ranging from Ancient Romans to Elinor Wylie and Rainer Maria Rilke, their recipes for verse using the simple ingredients of words and imagination are a wonderful and enduring example of their craft and art applied to the one thing mankind looks forward to each and every day.

En esta maravillosa obra, Miguel Hernández nos habla del sufrimiento de los pobres debida a la opresión causada por los líderes políticos. Y por otro lado se entristece contándonos como el el amor pasa desapercibido porque ya no es dirigido sólo a una mujer sino también al hombre y a la naturaleza.

Is it poetry or philosophy or both? Who knows, but it goes through your veins like a saccharine wave. Iteration 39 is subliminal rhymes or mnemonic art that becomes a part of the listeners' heart. Beating as they're hearing each line. It's difficult to define, so why even try? Unlike anything in your library nor near your shelf. It's selfish healthiness for the soul; young and old.

This collection of 29 short stories, poems, and essays will take your breath away, break your heart, and even inspire transformation in your life. Because there’s no time like the present to break out of your shell, spread your wings, and embrace your own metamorphosis.

What is it that makes poetry...well, poetry? Is it the devices and techniques used by its creators like rhyme and rhythm? Alliteration and assonance? Or is it something much deeper that these tools merely convey? Compared to prose, poetry has to tell a lot with a little. Therein lies the core of what poetry may be. It is the product of a poet placing one finger on the pulse of the world or reality, nature, or human experience, and holding a pen with the other hand.
