2009 HORSE POEMS FOR NICO WIND
The titles, poets (and lyricists, for I have included some lyrics to horse songs and
counted them as poetry) and publishing information I've been able to find for each poem are listed here. (Note
that this is still work in progress, as you can plainly see.) If you'd like a copy of a particular poem, send me e-mail,
and I'll send you a copy of the poem. I don't like to break copyright rules, and so only a few of the poems appear
in their entirety here. On the other hand, those titles that are underlined may connect to a link
that has the poem and other information about the poet. If the link doesn't work, I'd greatly appreciate hearing from
you about that! Thanks!
