It is commonplace that poetry is the literary form that best expresses our deepest feelings. Those who seldom read poetry regularly turn to it for weddings, funerals, and other milestones. This Take Heart anthology--the second collection from Maine Poet Laureate Wesley McNair's weekly newspaper column--is chosen from the work of poets all over Maine, representing a wide cultural view of the state.
