Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

While googling around this morning very early , I came across such a wonderful resource! I found it on the Living Books Curriculum site. It is an old book entitled Recitations for Assembly and Classroom

This great resource includes nearly 400 pages of poetry and prose recitation selections, along with a table of contents that has the selections organized both by general topic and by grade level (1-8, although many of the works would be perfect for high school as well). It basically lays out an eight year poetry course for you! You could easily use this book alone for all your poetry and prose memorization work. And it's free .

I opened it in iBooks so I could browse it more easily.
