The bestselling author of Under the Tuscan Sun brings poetryout of the classroom and into the homes of everyday readers. Before she fell in love with Tuscany, Frances Mayes fell in love with verse. After publishing five books of poetry and teaching creative writing for more than twenty-five years, Mayes is no stranger to the subject. In The Discovery of Poetry, an accessible field guide to reading and writing poetry, she shares her passion with readers. Beginning with basic terminology and techniques, from texture and sound to rhyme and repetition, Mayes shows how focusing on one aspect of a poem can help you to better understand, appreciate, and enjoy the reading and writing experience. In addition to many creative and helpful composition ideas, following each lyrical and lively discussion is a thoughtful selection of poems. With its wonderful anthology from Shakespeare to Jamaica Kinkaid, The Discovery of Poetry is an insightful, invaluable guide to what Mayes calls the natural pleasures of language-a happiness we were born to have.

Fits well! XL is Real!
Color: (239) Elite Beige / Elite Beige / Halo Gray, Size: X-Large
As far as I know, these are the only XL no show tan socks on Amazon that actually fit a size 14 foot. I've tried a few other that don't fit after wearing them once. This is a regular feeling sock and not the thin hose type like other XL.

Absolutely Essential for Any Athlete or Gym-Goer!
Size: Large, Color: (035) Steel / White / Black
I recently purchased the Under Armour Unisex-Adult Training Cotton No Show Socks 6 Pack, and I must say, they've become an indispensable part of my workout gear. Here's why these socks are a game-changer:
Comfort Above All: These socks are incredibly comfortable. Made from a blend of cotton and synthetic fibers, they provide just the right amount of cushioning without feeling bulky. Whether I'm running, lifting weights, or doing yoga, my feet feel supported yet free.
No Show, All Go: True to their name, these socks stay perfectly in place without slipping down into my shoes. This is crucial for maintaining a professional look at the gym or during sports activities. No more embarrassing sock peeks or having to constantly adjust them.
Durability: For the price, these socks hold up remarkably well. I've washed them multiple times, and they haven't lost their shape or elasticity. They've survived the rigors of both my workouts and laundry day.
Breathability: The material mix allows for excellent breathability. My feet stay dry and cool, reducing the chances of blisters or discomfort during long sessions.
Pack Value: Getting six pairs in one go is fantastic. It means I always have a fresh pair ready, which is perfect for someone like me who works out frequently.
Fit for All: These socks fit true to size and are designed to be unisex, making them a versatile choice for anyone looking to upgrade their sock game.
If you're in the market for socks that combine comfort, performance, and style, look no further. Under Armour has nailed it with these no-show socks. They've quickly become a staple in my wardrobe, and I find myself reaching for them over any other sock I own. Highly recommended for anyone serious about their fitness routine or just wanting reliable, high-quality socks.
5 out of 5 stars - These socks are a must-have!
