Some of the languageis pretty rough, but many of the men that wrote them or composed them were prettyrough themselves. In many books about ballads, the authors are listed as unknown oranonymous, but with the help of the internet, the Library of Congress, and several otheranthologies I found a few of the Unknowns.Several qualities seem to give a ballad legs to remain popular over the centuries. Ithas to relate to current human events, such as war, unrequited love or sudden death. Italso can be humorous, such as The four nights drunk, as any hung over man and pissedoff wife can attest to. Songs and poems about animal behavior will always be popularbecause pups will always piddle and Persian kittens will always screw. The story poemsof Robert Service and Banjo Patterson, have fascinated generations by their vivid imageryand the power of the English language.Some of these ballads are very old. The Cockroach song, La Cucaracha, predatesCortez and was sung by the Spaniards in the wars against the Moors. Other ballads weremodified from the original, such as My Darling Clementine. Even the great balladeer,Woody Guthrie borrowed his song, Union Maid, from Thurland Chattaways songRedwing. And Patrick Gilmores Johnnie Comes Marching Home, was taken from anIrish Anti-war ballad, Johnnie I Hardly Knew Ye.The type of music often leads to ballad composition. Dvoraks Humoresque, SousasGarry Owen and Howes Battle Hymn of the Republic are lilting and easy to sing andmemorize. Try to write lyrics to Beethovens Fifth or something out of Wagner. JohnnieCash recorded dozens of ballads to the same beat.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53036269928727,"sku":null,"price":538.56,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6918\/8119\/files\/9781479750948.jpg?v=1781008357"},{"product_id":"festival-of-love-9781479750993","title":"Festival of Love","description":"\u003cp\u003eLeticia Gossdenovich Feldman was bornin Guayaquil, Ecuador.

We watched the New England Patriots win their first Super Bowl and even she cheered at the end. That time will always be a most cherished memory.Some of the poems in Scraped Knees speak of faith and of learning to quiet the mind during Friends meetings for worship. Winter Darkness, Tears, and Human Touch look at the darker side of life while other poems, Solitude and Journey celebrate what life can be.And then theres Journeying Companions and Heres To, poems that speak to the friendship and comfort one may find in the time spent with four legged friends.My poems attempt to look at and picture in ones eye the many sides and moments in a lifetime of journeying. They look at the joyful and peace-filled days and walk through the reality of the more difficult happenings that one may face.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53036293521687,"sku":null,"price":538.56,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6918\/8119\/files\/9781479770915.jpg?v=1781008775"},{"product_id":"at-beautys-pawnshop-9781479771110","title":"At Beauty's Pawnshop","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn in Sydney, Australia, the son of an American sailor and an Australian school teacher, I was raised and educated in the United States, my childhood spent on a small farm in the Midwest and my adolescence in the suburbs of Los Angeles. I worked in the Post Office in San Francisco for five years and then taught French and English in a small country town in New South Wales, Australia, during the seventies. The character of its people, the austere beauty and the sense of space of this continent left a deep impression upon me and can be seen in my poems. I began experimenting with poetry in the early eighties, and this became a genuine passion in l984 when I was selected as one of fifteen Washington, D.C.area poets for the Jenny McKean Moore Poetry Workshop at The George Washington University taught by Julia Alvarez. My short stories have appeared inContempa, an Australian literary review, and my poetry in a number of U.S. reviews including Visions, The Birmingham Poetry Review, The George Mason Review, The Atlanta Review and others. My work appears in two anthologies: Hungry As We Are, (Washington Writers Publishing House, l995) and Free State : A Harvest of Maryland Poets (A Scop Publications anthology, l989). My first collection of poems, Painting at Night was published in 1994. I was a French and English teacher in Prince Georges County and now live in Annapolis, Maryland. I am a member of the Washington Writers Center and have participated in readings and writing workshops there and at various locations throughout the Washington-Baltimore area. My other passions are travel, dogs, and jazz, all of which enrich my poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53036293685527,"sku":null,"price":538.56,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6918\/8119\/files\/9781479771110.jpg?v=1781008780"},{"product_id":"inky-verses-and-polished-hearses-9781479772285","title":"Inky Verses and Polished Hearses","description":"\u003cp\u003eA conversation with a friend inspired E.
