Any poetry fans in these parts who might recommend some poets or poetry anthologies? (beehaw.org)

I don’t really consider myself a great poetic connoisseur and I’m not versed in the classics, I just pick a collection now and then let it sit with me for a bit.

With that context on my reading habits: I picked up and enjoyed the collection “Pine”, by Julia Koets.
