And bought a Robert Frost book of Poetry. I was told once, that I write like him. Does anyone have a favorite? and why?

I adore Colonial and Post-Colonial Literature. Nunez, Coetzee, Austen (yes, she's Colonial)...a lot of people/books people have never heard of.

I really love poetry by Jewel, I just really relate to it somehow.

You should look into some Henry James or T.S. Eliot.

I adore Henry Rollins, Charles Bukowski, Lord Byron and Maya Angelou...why? Because they all paint an incredible picture of their reality making it crystalline clear what they are experiencing in just a few brief words....that's magic....
