The CFS Anthology at the Oldpoetry website is now essentially complete, at 550 poems: Click here for website!

I must confess that I found many of her earliest poems excessively patriotic, jinguistic, and imperealistic. It was a hard job to slog through many of them. However, the bulk of her poems were published 1914 and after and reflect a greater world view and were based on personal experience, beyond the museum and library where her youthful fancy took her. And, as I've mentioned above, there are some poetic jewels even among her first three publications.

Cheerily,
