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.

The ballad is one of the oldest poetic forms in English and are simply poems or songs that tell a story. Maybe it’s because of childhood associations or that we all enjoy a cracking good story told in rhyme but as this volume demonstrates, the ballad has endless appeal. We include favourites such as Coleridge’s The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Edna St. Vincent Millay’s The Ballad of the Harp Weaver, Edgar Allan Poe’s Annabel Lee as well as classics such as Sir Patrick Spens, the Ballad of Reading Gaol by Wilde and La Belle Dame Sans Merci by Keats.

El amor a traves de los ojos de los poetas. Puesto que el amor es uno de los motores que mueve a la humanidad, no es de sorprender que los grandes poetas hayan dedicado una parte importante de sus creaciones a expresar esos sentimientos, desde el amor inocente hasta el erotico, pasando por todos los matices de la pasion y del canto a la persona amada.

Eine ganz besondere Sammlung an Gedichten aus mehreren Jahrhunderten bis zur Gegenwart, bei denen das schönste der Gefühle im Mittelpunkt steht. Romantische, fantastische, klassische und moderne Verse treffen auf eine einzigartig eindrückliche Umsetzung. Unverwechselbare Stimmen, so vielfältig und kontrastreich wie die Gedichte selbst, erwecken sie durch Sprache und Gesang zum Leben. Die Liebe in ihren Höhen und Tiefen, das kann mal rührend, mal freudig, mal traurig oder auch mal komisch sein. So gelingt eine magische und tief berührende Sicht auf die Liebe in all ihren Facetten.

La poésie amoureuse serait née avec Orphée qui, accompagné de sa lyre, chanta son amour à la belle Eurydice... De l'Antiquité à nos jours, dire l'amour n'a cessé d'être la préoccupation des écrivains et poètes. Si les formes poétiques ont évolué et se sont diversifiées, on retrouve pourtant à travers les époques l'expression d'une sensibilité, d'un désir à combler.

To satisfy you, I must hate myself. What choice do I make? To love you who has loved me, or to follow this destined fate. Another lifetime is one too many. Should I hide like the fruits I taste?

Today perhaps we all agree that youth is spoilt, ill-disciplined and in search of constant and instant gratification. No matter how much we love them, our children, as they mature from child to youth, are pampered. A century ago, and even further back, even the most privileged of youth was rarely indulged. In this volume we look at those years of youth through the eyes and pens of classic poets. They reveal times of hardship, of fear, of love and loss.

The most enduring and popular theme of poems and poets is that of love. Love changes; its rhythms pause and pulse on the tiniest of things and the biggest of thrills. Within its shades all other feelings, all other emotions, gently reside, waiting for their moment. In these 50 poems, the many, many shades of love reveal themselves.

In this collection, you’ll find stories conveyed through poetry and song. Some of them will no doubt be familiar to you - like Francis Scott Key’s Star Spangled Banner and Julia Ward Howe’s Battle Hymn of the Republic (although many people are only familiar with the first verse). Other poems will be entirely new to you. My hope is that you’ll embrace both the familiar and the unfamiliar as pieces of the American story that deserve to be remembered.

Ella lo dijo, y lo dijo delante de todos para que no hubiera dudas: «si me olvidas, te mato». Desde Sanlúcar de Barrameda partió Luis de Salazar sin más fortuna que la puesta, y con los años aprendió los oficios de truhan, vendedor de carne humana, asistente de inquisidores y maestro en el disfraz. Rodeado de lacayos que le limpian la baba y dan lustro a sus cien pares de botas, Luis de Salazar duerme la siesta de los infelices.

Love whether fleeting or of the ages, expressed with a look, a touch, or a thought is wanted by us all. Our classic poets did not surrender to the logic of the group or seek advice from others quick to blame but slow to embrace. Their legacy remains because it is true, because in that look, that touch, that thought, that display of words the heart remembers us and treasures us. Here are words and verse of love. For your ears, your loved one’s ears and hearts everywhere.
