Alphabetical Poem First Lines

Lol, I'm halfway there... Enjoyed :)

"How did they learn that their ways were small?" - Mary Mapes Dodge; Jean And Kitty... https://www.litscape.com/author/Mary...And_Kitty.html

There is a saying in German: "If one listens behind the wall, one hears one owns shame".

"I wept until my tears were dry"."Jerusalem" by Nizar Qabbani
https://www.poetrycat.com/nizar-qabbani/jerusalem

Enjoyed the poem very much :) . Interesting poet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nizar_Qabbani "And his verses would remain popular after his death, and put to song by Arab pop-music stars such as Kazem al-Saher and Latifa.[15] However, such songs were introduced after filtering the original poems."...

"John Keats" - J.D. Salinger; John Keats... https://readalittlepoetry.com/2006/0...-j-d-salinger/

"John Keats"-Lol!

"Knock with tremor --"Knock with tremor --" by Emily Dickinson

Enjoyed both the poem and the analysis :)

"Less than the cloud to the wind," - Sara Teasdale; Less Than The Cloud To The Wind... https://allpoetry.com/Less-Than-The-Cloud-To-The-Wind

re"Less than the cloud to the wind," - Interesting poem, but I think the AI analysis is not complete. The poem in fact compares the scant love the poet receives from his/her beloved with his/her own superlative feeling.

"My Grandpapa lives in a wonderful house"."The Painted Ceiling" by Amy Lowell

I see.

The magical musings of a child... Enjoyed very much :)

"Now like the Lady of Shalott," - Elizabeth Stoddard; Before The Mirror... https://www.litscape.com/author/Eliz...he_Mirror.html

Follows the original Lady of Shaliot, a favourite poem of mine, which starts with O:https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poe...f-shalott-1832 and the song which is also beautiful:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z77PR0JA0gU. Stoddard's poem seems to maintain the sadness and the loneliness of the original poem without the heroic part. Enjoyed!

Lovely poem & song :)

:) As the poem coincidentally starts with O I also used it as the next contribution. Sorry if this was a bit confusing.
Awaiting now your offering of a "P" poem

Oh, sorry, I'm not the brightest bulb in the forest...
