Dear readers and subscribers, it’s been an inspiring week exploring American poetry and featuring captivating poems from our French and Russian poetry pages. I decided to introduce a variety of talented American authors, each offering a selection of their remarkable poems, and to continue adding new random poems to one of the pages every week.
Among the exciting new additions, you will find the works of Natalie Clifford Barney, William Cullen Bryant, Ralph Waldo Emerson. Marianne Craig Moore and Edna St. Vincent Millay. I’m confident that you will discover an abundance of delightful pieces to savor within this rich and diverse collection.
As we continue to explore the depths of poetry from various cultures and periods, I invite you to immerse yourself in the beauty of language and the power of expression. Let these masterful words transport you to new realms of imagination and understanding, enriching your life in ways you never thought possible. The journey through the world of poetry is a never-ending adventure, and I am thrilled to have you alongside us as we embark on this wondrous exploration.
As usual let’s begin by our American poets,
We will continue with our French poet, Paul Verlaine where I added the collection “Bonheur ”. Following are a few of the poems randomly chosen:

L’amour de la Patrie est le premier amour
L’incroyable, l’unique horreur de pardonner
Le « sort » fantasque qui me gâte à sa manière
La vie est bien sévère
Mon ami, ma plus belle amitié, ma meilleure
La neige à travers la brume
Vous m’avez demandé quelques vers sur « Amour »
L’ennui de vivre avec le monde et dans les choses
La cathédrale est majestueuse
Le « sort » fantasque qui me gâte à sa manière
We’ll finish with our Russian poet Anna Akhmatova (Анна Ахматова)

This week our article was a translation of the poem “There is no sun, but the ponds are bright…” by Ivan Bunin in English with English and Russian side by side with the painting “In the park” by Ivan Ivanovich Shishkin
