hii! idk if you know any, but i’m looking for poems that talk about places/countries! like italy, france, egypt, spain (some specific ones: córdoba, sevilla, cantabria), england, netherlands, austria, letonia… and so. it’s for a project i’m doing for my mom, and it’d be really helpful if you could link me some poems! thank you so much x

I can’t remember a whole lot but a few off the top of my head:

“Song for an Ancient City” - Amal el-Mohtar (Damascus)“I’m explaining a few things” - Pablo Neruda (Spain)“Drinking the Sun of Corinth” - Odysseas Elytis (Greece)“Dover Beach” - Matthew Arnold (England)“MCMXIV” - Philip Larkin (England)”The Lake Isle of Innisfree” - W. B. Yeats (Ireland)“Postscript” / “Tollund” - Seamus Heaney (Ireland/Denmark)”Finisterre” - Sylvia Plath (France)“Ithaka” - C.P. Cavafy (Greece, with a touch of myth for good measure)“Drinking” - Gabriela Mistral (a brief spiritual globtrot sort of)“City Moon” - Francisco Aragón (Portugal)“Castles In Spain” / “Amalfi” / “Belfry of Bruges” - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow“Florence” - Samuel Taylor Coleridge (Italy)“Evening: Ponte Al Mare, Pisa” - Percy Bysshe Shelley (Italy)“In Egypt, one hour isn’t like any other” - Mahmoud Darwish (Egypt/Nile Delta)“Song of the Arbat” - Bulat Okudzhava (Moscow - scroll down a bit on the site)“Little Ballad of the Three Rivers” / “Poem of the Soleá” - Federico García Lorca (Spain/Andalusia). I’ve only started reading him recently but if you have the time, you can also check out Lorca’s Sketches of Spain, Six Galician Poems and Poema del Canto Jondo which should hopefully give you a lot more of what you’re looking for! x

If anyone has more suggestions please add them in!

“i thought about kissing you today and yesterday and the day before that. i know i’ll think about kissing you tomorrow and the day after that and some more days after those days. i think about kissing you slowly and tracing my fingers along your lips. i think about kissing you in your car, in the rain, on your doorstep. i think about kissing your dimple, your cheek, your spot. i think about kissing only you, not anyone else, just you.”
