WW1 POETRY

 

WW1 was the bloodiest conflict of all times. When you look at the more than 500 war cemeteries in the zone of Ypres, in Belgium, you can not avoid to feel a shiver in your spine. English literature was enriched with dozens of poets, that fought in the Continent. Many of these lost their lives in the battlefield.

On this site,  those poets are referred:

Rupert Brooke  (1887 – 1915)

Robert Graves (1895 – 1985)

John McCrae (1872 – 1918)

Wilfred Owen (1893 – 1918)

Isaac Rosenberg (1890 – 1918)

Siegfried Sassoon (1886 – 1967)

Edward Thomas (1878 – 1917)  

 

Then, you can find more WW1 poems in many sites in the Internet, for an example those:
