Poetry
is the language of love, of revenge, of despair, of hope, of the people. Here is a Top 14 List of Latino poets we
should all be reading more of. Among them we have the FIRST Spanish American Poet to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature, an inaugural poet and two Poet Laureates. I've
tried to find websites for all the poets and, where there isn't any, I've
posted a link where you could get more information on them. Happy reading! --mcf
