What a great poetry primer post. As I started to read about accessible poetry I immediately thought of Billy Collins and then there he was in your post. Last week I was just showing my 14 year old a video of him reading The Lanyard. Three of my favorites of Kate Baer's are here: https://cupofjo.com/2019/06/10/kate-baer-motherhood-poems/
