Spike Milligan's poetry is great, he was very talented & funny. He definitely wasn't a one trick pony!

Sylvia Plath is amazing, but I also love Ruyard Kipling, his poem 'IF' means so much to me.

I would say that Robert Frost is one of my favorite poets.

Shakespeare, Cohen, Heaney... Lots and lots and so many different types of poetry it's hard to choose an outright favourite!

Najwa Zebian is one of my favorite poet. Her writing style and word usage is amazing. I can connect with her words easily.
