Here is what people are saying about the Good Poems by Garrison Keillor, ISBN 1565116941
5 Star Rating  "Good Poems are really Great Poems!"2009-11-16
- Reviewed By User: AQ0DSA0O1ZKWJ
Garrison Keillor has chosen some great poems for this book. A friend used a couple of the poems for her music therapy projects and they were very well received. You're in for a treat with this book.

nice, delightful, not filling, and typical concepts from the author. most will be glad he wrote this and will be glad that they set their musing upon such.

Thou flowing water, pure and clear,
Make music for thy Lord to hear,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Thou fire so masterful and bright,
That givest man both warmth and light.

These poems are good. I wouldn't go so far as to call them amazing, but they give you a taste of some famous poems you may not have read before. I'm not going to say that this is my favorite book of poems. They were good and not reading them would be passing up an opportunity to read some genuinely good stuff. Reading this book gave me an overview of the styles of some good poets who have, some of them, become favorites.

A nice collection of poems that are easy to read, thought provoking, just fun, and very eclectic. A good book for anyone who likes poetry or who wants to get into it.
 
4 Star Rating  "Good Enough Poems"2008-10-28
- Reviewed By User: A2DB720I9XRX7K
I've always enjoyed Keillor's "Writer's Almanac", a five minute PBS program that comes on at 9am where I live. GK's trademark soothing voice, a homey-type poem, historical tidbits and birthdays of literary figures: a little food for thought to start the day. "Good Poems" is an anthology of 433 pages of these poems--chosen from the few thousand which he has read on the radio.

The definition of "Good Poems" for this blue paperback volume is that they read well on the radio--somehow engaging our attention, despite the frying of eggs and bacon, or whatever else we are doing--and that they are memorable because they have a narrative quality, they tell a story. "Good Poems" should be accessible and make a lasting impression. You will not find here esoteric brain-busters such as [most of] T.S. Eliot's works. Also missing are poems of ancient masters, such as Rumi, or translations of masterpieces from other countries. Sadly. The vast majority of GK's Good Poems come from 20th Century United States, with occasional dipping into the 19th century.

If you like folksy, sometimes even sentimental poetry, then these are "Good Poems". If you love Emily Dickenson, for example, and Robert Frost and Robert Bly. If you don't mind a folk song-poem such as "Home on the Range". But even Charles Bukowski hits the mark with his straight forward poems.

I like Mary Oliver and James Wright, who are also represented in this volume. In fact, Wright's "A Blessing"--about the Indian ponies--is one of all-time my favorite poems. Mary Oliver's "The Geese" is wonderful, too. (As an aside: my favorite Mary Oliver poem is in "Poem a Day" vol. 2, another great anthology which I am currently reading. That book has a bit different flavor--broader and deeper, I think. You might like it also--I'll post a review about it soon)

The "Good Poems" are arranged into 19 chapters--categorized by GK. The title and the name of the poet are at the top of each work, but not the date. Be sure to read the mini-bios about the authors at the end of the book; many of them are quite interesting. It would have been helpful if Keillor had referenced the page numbers of the poems in the bio section, so that you could read the bio, and turn to poem(s) by that writer. But you do get 400+ uncut pages, with a fold-over flap on each side, which is useful for holding your place. And on the back flap the coolest,weirdest black-and-white portrait of Garrison Keiller is printed.

"Be well, do good work and keep in touch", Garrison.

This book is just ok. I personally can't stand poems that don't rhyme...so this wasn't my book. I don't find them all to be good, although many may disagree.
