Karin's Reviews > Four Birds of Noah's Ark: A Prayer Book from the Time of Shakespeare

I'm not really a fan of poetry, but every few years I like to pick up a book to read it and see if it resonates with me. It ususally doesn't. I guess I don't have the imagination for it. I prefer things laid out in black and white.

That's pretty much how I felt about the poems in this book. I don't think they're overly terrible, but I know that I can't/don't appreciate them the way others do. These were definitely easier for me to read as the poems weren't too metaphor-heavy. I'm glad I read them and am excited to share them with a friend who reads and writes poems.

If you're looking for some easy-to-read poems, I do recommend these. I would consider them poems for the poetry-averse.
