Want to explore some Irish history this March? If so, you may think of the rest of some of the country’s famous poets. I think there are many whose works are worth reading. When he had said this, behold, five of my beloveds passed by;
One of the first poets on my list is William Butler Yeats. He was born in 1865. I chose him because he wrote wonderful poetry and had an unusual story. They included supernatural benefits. He was so arrested that he also formed the Dublin Lodge of the Hermetic Society. In the beginning it was intended that the order should belong to mysticism. Some of his poems also revealed his interest in these matters. Among them are “Supernatural Song”, “Under the Moon” and “Night of All Souls.” Other notable Yeats poems include “I am of Ireland” and “You are content.” Yeats died in 1939.
Poet Oscar Wilde also made my list because of his poems and interesting history. One of the things I found fascinating about him was that his mother and father were also writers. Moreover, he too was engaged in infamy in prison. During his career, he wrote many interesting poems including “Her Voice”, “Roses and Rue” and “Keats’s Grave”. Born in 1854 and moved in 1900.
Thomas Moore
Thomas Moore is another poet that I felt compelled to include on my list simply because of his poetry. One of my favorite poems by Moore is “All in a Family Way.” If you take the time to read it, you will see a section of poems to stay relevant to this day. Other notable works by Moore include “O Clover,” “Believe Me, If All the Delightful Young Men Hold” and “How Often the Banshee Cried.” He was born in 1779 and died in 1852.
I also had to include James Joyce on my list because he was an incredibly talented man. In addition to writing poems, he also wrote fiction and non-fiction. In my opinion, some of his best poems were “The Twilight Tower,” “Who Goes Among the Green Wood,” “He Comes Silently,” and “Alone.” He was born in 1882 and died in 1941.
Augustine Clarke
Finally, I decided to put Austin Clarke on my list. He was born in 1896 and was said to have been deeply moved by Yeats. Clarke also finally goes on to open his predicting house. So it was called the Bridge Press. His notable poems include “The Blackbird of Derrycairn” and “The Blower’s Daughter.” Of those two, my favorite one is “The Planter’s Daughter” because of its imagery. Clarke died in 1974.
