Poetry Reader

Read poetry as books, not isolated quote cards—and get thoughtful help only when you ask. Poetry Reader is a quiet home for reading public-domain poetry collections. Choose a book, move through it at your own pace, and keep the individual poems that stay with you. A REAL POETRY LIBRARY • Read 1,834 public-domain collections, epics, long poems, and works of verse drama • Begin with Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, William Shakespeare, Robert Frost, John Keats, and many more • Search poets, collections, poem titles, and first lines • Open a collection once to keep reading it offline • Swipe naturally through the book and return to your exact place • Enjoy an adaptive iPad library and a focused, centered page in portrait or landscape UNDERSTAND MORE—WITHOUT LEAVING THE POEM Tap Explain for a direct explanation, or use Ask AI to ask your own question by voice or text. Voice starts with recording and keeps typed input one tap away. The poetry guide focuses on the words in front of you and preserves ambiguity where the poem supports more than one reading. AI help is request-only. Poetry Reader never generates an explanation merely because you opened or read a poem. MAKE THE LIBRARY YOURS • Favorite an individual poem inside a larger collection • Highlight passages and add personal notes • Save collections to your library • See what you have read and continue where you stopped • Choose a comfortable text size and System, Light, or Dark reading mode • Set an optional daily reminder for your current collection—you can always read more than one poem READ WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT Browsing, downloading, reading, searching, reminders, and favorites work without an account. Sign in with Apple only when you want to use the poetry guide or sync favorites and progress across devices. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Poetry Reader does not show ads or track you across apps and websites. Voice recordings are sent only when you tap Send and are discarded after transcription. AI answers appear only when you request them. The launch library is available in the United States and uses identified Project Gutenberg editions that are public domain in the U.S.
