Although I've read and written poetry for my own pleasure for about twenty years now, I've only seriously studied and written poetry on a consistent basis for the past two years. In this sense, I still consider myself a beginning poet. When attempting to pursue an art form as refined and historically informed as poetry, only after spending a number of years reading and writing intensively would I no longer consider myself a beginner, but a practitioner of the art. I've grounded my early development as a poet in concision, voice, and imagination, and hope to build upon these ideas with other poetic techniques, theories, and forms as I go forward. I am particularly interested in mastering the sonnet form, a concise and imaginative form that will allow me to further develop my skills. Hopefully, the works in this thesis reflect that effort.

"It is with one of the publishing awards available to young poets that this study is concerned, namely, the Yale Series of Younger Poets, which has been offered since 1919 by the Yale University Press. Because this award was initiated to furnish a medium of publication for a first volume by a young poet as a stimulus to further writing, this writer was interested in determining whether this award proved to be an incentive to further writing by the individuals of the group. This study, therefore, is an attempt to determine if the first forty poets represented in the Series continued writing after their first publication, and if so, in what media, and if further literary recognition was awarded to any of the group"--Introduction. / Typescript. / "August, 1953." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts." / Advisor: Agnes Gregory, Professor Directing Study. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 102-105).

Love Poem with Exiles is a collection of poems with a critical preface. The poems are varied in terms of subject matter and form. In the critical preface, I discuss my relationship with poetry as well as the idea that we inherit poems, and that if we are inspired by them, we can transform them into something new.
