Responding to Andrea's recommendation of the teaching poetry guide - Awakening the Heart by Georgia Heard - I'm the one who is going to post my poetry list and it is organized around Awakening the Heart which in my opinion is the "Bible" for teaching poetry. In my classes, I show teachers how to implement her book using specific books of poetry. I'm currently out of town having eye surgeries and don't have my poetry list on my laptop. When I get home next week, I will send it to you all. Thanks for your patience. Carolyn

I will be happy to share my list - however I'm having some eye surgery today so can't get it off to you for a few days.
