Favorite Modern/Living/Non-English Poet

[quasimodo1]

St. Lukes, I's sure you know many of my choices. Great question, one that has tough choices instead of answers. The poets you selected, especially, Rilke, come close to my own. Lately been re-evaluating Plath in "The Collected Poems, Sylvia Plath" edited by a least favorite writer: Ted Hughes, who I imagine has all the rights to her poetry. The current thread about Plath is ill-informed, in my not so humble opinion. Also been attracted to Tomas Transtromer but this opinion is still in the making. ("The Great Enigma, new collected poems" translated by Robin Fulton.) Arrivederci, q1

I agree with Silas.

It's Frost. Not only a good poet, but a good teacher (in his prose) of poets.
