A Precious Old Poetry Book

My mom purchased this book at one of Vandalia's used book sales downtown. Proceeds went to the Friends of the Library. This particular book had been withdrawn from library circulation. 

I liked to read some of the poetry as I sat outside in our backyard, when I was in middle school,  1971 and 1972. I liked Walt Whitman the best, and also Sidney Lanier. I hoped that someday I'd also write poetry.
