  Thanks to everyone who's contributed to this list.  I'm keeping track of it on my blog, as well.



  I've tabulated the responses so far and pasted them below.  Funny that no poems between 1900 and 1909 have been submitted.  Of course, 1910-1919 is a popular (right word?) decade for poetry--WWI looms large here.  



  Please keep posting ideas as you get them.
