 | Complete Poems by Marianne Moore Moore's poems are revered for her fresh and original language and what her friend Elizabeth Bishop called her polysyllabic virtuosity. She was a ladylike poet who valued elegance and decorum, and the concreteness and concision of her verse reflect her Imagist beginnings. Moore dealt with large questions by examining the small and seemingly trivial; her unconventional subject matter included animals, baseball, flowers, Brooklyn, opera, the circus--all of which she adored. She also wrote about poetry itself, most famously in her poem simply entitled Poetry, which contains the memorable definition of poetry as imaginary gardens with read toads in them.
