Billy Collins is a master at writing poetry not just for the beauty of the words, but to also convey a message. Until I read Sailing Alone Around the Room, I wasn't a fan of this genre. Mr. Collins has single-handedly changed that. I'd like to say I have a favorite, but honestly, I liked them all! I think the U.S. has found its next poet laureate! If you liked this book, also check out From the Heart by Kendall Bell. It's short stories, but like Mr. Collins' book, very inspirational.
