The Internet Poetry Archive

While the layout of this site may not immediately impress, there are true and beautiful gems hidden only just below the surface. The site features seven poets and dozens of poems - each of them carefully composed and lovingly offered to the interested public. Each poem is presented in print form as well as in audio, as read by the authors. Seamus Heaney, who won a Nobel Prize for Poetry in 1995, reads "Bogland," "The Tollund Man," "Casualty," and other famous poems. The former Poet Laureate of the United States, Robert Pinsky, gives an introduction to the readings, and then reads "The Night Game," "Ode to Meaning," "To Television," and others. Yusef Komunyakaa, Philip Levine, Margaret Walker, and Richard Wilbur are also featured here, while the Nobel Prize winner Czeslaw Milosz reads his poems in the original Polish.
