If you’re looking for short English poems for recitation then you’re welcome to browse this site for a poem that speaks to you.
I’m poet Guy Farmer and I write deep short poems about the human condition — the things that make us feel, think, and act the way we do.
I had a reader in New York City tell me, “Your poems say so much in so few words, a pleasure to read and ponder.”
If you would like to recite one of my poems, please feel free to do so; I just ask that you cite the name of the poem, my name, and the URL and name of this website. Cheers, Guy.
