It is My Soul that Sings

- Selected Poems of Charles Gordon Rex

Bag om It is My Soul that Sings

Poet and composer Charles Gordon Rex's style of writing, finally being published in the 21st Century, is that of a bygone era. He was the product of the first half of the Twentieth Century with the bulk of his works being written in the 1930s and 1940s. His preferred form was the venerable sonnet. For other forms, a major influence was the poetry of A. E. Housman, many of whose poems Rex as a composer set to music. Thus, it is unfortunate that during his own lifetime, he rarely bothered with the publication of either his poetry or his music. It is the hope of the editor that this volume will help fill the void Charles Gordon Rex left behind and that lovers of poetry will enjoy his work as represented in this collection.
