The Wondering Minstrels

Personal: Martin's Discoveries

Some of the lesser-known poems on my list of personal favourites. If this is a rather short selection, it's only because I've passed over a lot of my favourite poems as being too well-known to include here - if you want a fuller list, you need only look at the main Minstrels index :).

A brief note on collections. Probably worth a quick read at this point.
