Selected Poems 1968 - 2021

By R Shoaf

This wonderful poetry collection shares R. Allen Shoaf's work - dating from the 1960s to 2021. Containing hundreds of poems, this book represents the best of Shoaf's work, both as a young poet, as yet unsure of himself, and as a more mature poet, further along in his journey on the way to becoming a writer.

In these poems, you will hear the author's emerging voice composed of Wordsworth's "feeling intellect," Yeats' furious politics, Stevens' awe at language, and Heaney's commitment to each detail no matter how small. Shoaf honors this heritage even as he adds to it his own distinct, long-practiced voice.
