I am a fan of Dylan Thomas' poetry. I love the structure, the imagery, and the metaphors.
Do you have a favorite poem that he has written?
Yes..."Lament".
I think Lament is the one that chronicles his life.  Didn't he die young?
Yes. He died in 1953, the same year I was born. He died at the age of 39.
I read that they originally thought that he died from drinking too  much but later they discovered he might have had pneumonia. A tragedy either way.
Yes, and it's easy to die of aspiration pneumonia if one is drunk! It was a real tragedy!!!
John Keats also died young, he was only 26
That's an unfortunate theme with creative people; Franz Schubert was only 32.
Do you have any other Dylan Thomas poems that you like?
Lots of them: "A Winter's Tale", "If I Were Tickled By the Rub of Love", to name a couple.
I have heard of a winters tale, it is beautiful
