This hasn't been done in this format so far as I can tell. The Windhover by Gerard Manley Hopkins.

This was something we did at school and I've never forgotten it. You can't record it but I thought I'd share it anyway.

It might already be in here but Paul Revere's Ride By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is a really good poem.

Here's a link to the poem:

Thanks Starfire, it has been done twice in Poetry Collections, but not as a Fortnightly.

Hey David,

I see this was only done once in a poetry collection back in 2011, might be good for this forum.

E.A. Poe's, The Conqueror Worm

Welocme to LibriVox obiajulum :)
The first step is to do a One Minute Test, not an audition, but a means to check your recording setup to see if the technical specs match up with ours. :wink:
*Please follow all the instructions.
You can also read through the LibriVox Wiki to gain more info on everything LibriVox. :D

Hello! I'm so sorry, I'm a total newbie here, but I saw that Hope by Ellis Bell (or Emily Bronte) was on the list of suggestions, so does that mean it is unclaimed, and I can record it? Also, where would I submit it if I did record it? Thank you!

Hi Rachel, Hope by Ellis Bell was a poetry project finished the first week in March. You are free to record it for the current Short Poetry Collection, found here.

Have you resubmitted your test file to clear up the issues you had with Pro Logic? :wink:

Our current Weekly Poetry Project is here. (as always, please read all the instructions in the opening post)

And this is a link to those last recorded versions of "Hope" - not bad actually.
