Highly recommended

This is a fantastic app for all readers, writers, and poetry-lovers. I have no complaints. This app allows you to "discover" random new (and old) poetry, which is wonderful, but I am most impressed by the different ways that it allows the user to browse for the kind of poems he or she wants to read. It allows the user to browse for poems by author and first line, which you would expect and is of course highly useful, but it also allows you to browse by subject (love, death, etc) and--perhaps most uniquely--by mood (grateful, disappointed, happy, sad, etc).

This is a thoughtfully-designed app that really has the poetry-reader-on-the-go in mind: there is a wonderful selection of old and contemporary poems here, but as a reader you will not be overwhelmed by your choices: the intelligent browsing options will help you find the exact kind of poem you are in the mood to read right now. Also worth a mention is the option to add poems to your "favourites," which creates a list of your favourite poems for easy-access and re-reading later.

I highly recommend this app. Thank you, Poetry Foundation!
