I've never been one for poetry collections. I prefer reading a variety of poetry by different authors, not a lot of poems by one person. Any collections you think I should try?

I'm not a big poetry person, but I do like Edgar Allen Poe.

I'm in to Lang Leav right now but I'd love to read Maya Angelou and TS Elliot's collection.

Alicia Keys and Jill Scott both wrote poetry books. I know they are celebrities but they were both very well written.

I genuinely enjoyed Lang Leav's Love and Misadventure but I prefer to just read poetry in general and not in collections.

About two years ago, I really started getting into poetry, especially modern poetry. My favorite modern poet is definitely Robert M. Drake. I now own all of his collections. The most recent collection I have found is by Amanda Lovelace. I had not heard of her before, but I saw her collection sitting on a table and I could not walk away without it. It is called "The Princess Saves Herself in this One," and it is absolutely amazing.

I enjoyed reading 'Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair' by Pablo Neruda. It's just so beautiful when he writes...
Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.
...
I no longer love her, that's certain, but how I loved her.
My voice tried to find the wind to touch her hearing.

I do not have a particular collection. I read any good poem from different poets across the globe.
