Shel Silverstein 2

…

…his published poems are quite brief yet catchy and simple. Many times they are so silly that while reading them it is often very entertaining for almost anyone. " The poems are tender, funny, sentimental, philosophical, and ridiculous in turn, and they're for all ages including mine." (William Cole, 282) Shel Silverstein set quite an example for other writers also. He taught them other ways to get the ideas across to the readers. The images he creates.
