di Edgar Allan Poe (Autore)

The Copyright Group, 2022

‘Perchance to dream’ is an offer that most of us would accept in the blink of an eye. That mysterious ‘other world’ where the day’s reality is processed by our subconscious, really is a mystery, even to the experts and self-help books who decipher our beguiling imaginings with all sorts of reasonings. Perhaps the better truth is that most of us don’t remember much about our dreams, unlike its near neighbour the nightmare! Day-dreams too fall into a fantasy imagining where we try to re-route the natural course of events as we move from one emotion to another. Our unconscious dreams seem essential for our mental and emotional well-being and some believe they provide solutions, answers and prophesize important events. In the conscious world we use the word to describe our goals, desires and wishes which reveal much about who we are and our chosen path for life. Whatever their significance may or may not be, they are universal and a subject on which our poets have much to say. With such a rich seam to mine, our poets from Sarojini Naidu to Lewis Carroll, Edna St Vincent Millay to Shakespeare by way of Antonio Machado and Longfellow and a host of others provide a pillowful of poems that will set you dreaming. 01 - The Poetry of Dreams - An Introduction 02 - He Wishes For the Cloths of Heaven by W B Yeats 03 - A Dream Within a Dream by Edgar Allen Poe 04 - The Dream by John Donne 05 - The Dream by Amy Levy 06 - Ay, Workman, Make Me A Dream by Stephen Crane 07 - House of Dreams by Sara Teasdale 08 - My Darling Dear, My Daisy Flower by John Skelton 09 - Roses of a Dream by Damon Runyon 10 - A Ballad of Dreamland by Algernon Charles Swinburne 11 - Longing by Matthew Arnold 12 - The Dream by Alexander Pushkin 13 - A Dream by Edgar Allen Poe 14 - The Dream by Aphra Behn 15 - Love by Rupert Brooke 16 - This Faulted Dream by Daniel Sheehan 17 - Sonnet 87 - Farewell!
