That was lovely, Ethan! Thank you for sharing here! PL OK and Magic Window updated!
It's fitting for Frost to write about snowy evenings and frozen lakes

Hi Rapunzelina.

I would like to read 'The Virgin Mother' by George William Russell and 'The Tyger' by William Blake. Is that okay?

Certainly!

Preferred text source is gutenberg.org, so suggested text could be
https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/16615 for The Virgin Mother
and
https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/574 for The Tyger

Hello! I'm very new to Librivox, and this is my first poetry submission!

Is it alright if the poem is an excerpt from a novel? I was going through The Idiot and found this version of Pushkin's 'The Poor Knight' that I liked a lot, hehe.

The Poor Knight by Alexander Pushkin (1799-1837) as adapted in The Idiot by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
