I Would Stay Forever If I Could and New Poems

Poetry. This collection of poems is informed by history and place, by Jewish immigrant parents, by love, loss and baseball--all by a practitioner of rhyme so skillful you hardly notice its presence until it rings again in memory. This expanded edition replaces the original chapbook, which is out of print. Larry Levy teaches English at Delta College in Central Michigan. He has run marathons, coached student soccer and basketball, directed and performed in plays, and been twice elected to public office.
