The Cosmic Poet

Emily Dickinson, Maya Angelou, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Amanda Gorman and Sappho.

Each became well-known for their poetic contributions, and for moving hearts and minds with their words. To any follower of poetic history, their life stories and writings are great sagas.
