From beloved pets to majestic wildlife, and even the first dog in space, animals have long been a source of inspiration for poets across the ages. Animals are evocative of so much—the awe we feel seeing a skylark soaring along a breeze, the fear instilled in us by predators hunting big game, or the deep love we might feel for a pet. Our relationship with the animal world is a diverse and complex subject, which is what makes this collection so fascinating.
Among the 366 poems are T. S. Eliot's "Macavity: The Mystery Cat," Robert Frost's exacting reflections of wildlife in rural America, Wendy Cope observing the livestock at a country fair, Lemn Sissay's observations on birds, and more.
