Poetry for the Queen Queen Elizabeth II and Poetry. A small anthology of poems for the Queen. This volume contains 20 of 50 poems and ballads in German and English that an admirer named Elizabeth sent to the Queen between 1966 and 2015 - presumably: How wonderfully / Nature shines for me ... Spring lets his blue ribbon / Fluttering through the air again ... Two sails illuminating / The deep blue bay ... It was as if heaven / Had silently kissed the earth ... It beat my heart, swiftly, on horseback ... Do you know the land where the lemons bloom ... The leaves fall, fall as if from far ... Oh, it's eerie to walk across the moor ... The anthology brings together small and large works of art by Baudelaire, Claudius, Droste-Hülshoff, Eichendorff, Fontane, Goethe, Heine, Hofmannsthal, Morgenstern, Mörike, Rilke and Schiller, among others. Read familiar and discover new favourite poems to enjoy, ponder and continue writing poetry.weiterlesen
