 | Lyric Poetry Lyric poetry is a form of poetry that does not attempt to tell a story, as do epic poetry and dramatic poetry, but is of a more personal nature instead. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyric_poetry
|  | Lyrical Works Here, on the Lyricalworks site, we're going to concentrate on lyric poetry. Lyric poetry goes back at least as far as Classical Greece, where it was often composed to be recited to the sounds of the lyre, flute, or other instrument. These song-like origins are central to an understanding of this type of poetry. http://www.lyricalworks.com/poetry/poetry1.htm
