Thanks! The poems themselves are fine. There are just some technical tweaks to make.
Volumes are a touch high; if you amplified, don't amplify as much. (They're about 3 dB high.)
Files are in stereo; needs to be mono. To fix it on THESE recordings (without re-recording), go to Tracks / Stereo to Mono.
ID title tag should be the name of the poem, not the file name. (This is especially important on collections like this, since I cannot import them from the Magic Window like on regular books.)
Those are the things that need fixing. The following is a suggestion:
You have some background white noise that should be easy to clean up. You could try a light noise cleaning. Here are a couple resources:

Hi there, thanks for the feedback, but how do I do the title tag and file name to be different? It just gives me the Track Title option (If I put the name of the file there, it changes the file's name to that as well)TriciaG wrote:Thanks! The poems themselves are fine.

I see you are using GarageBand. I'm not sure how you do it in there; people have figured it out, though. Perhaps you could ask in the Need Help? section of the forums?
