' A Score Of fine Poems " is offered keeping in mind the general guidelines by the Tamil Nadu state council for Higher Education. The poems are finespum and of enduring value. They would urge the learner to develop his academic skills of referring, analysing, apperciating and securing and increased command of the English language. The exercises and appreciation that follow every poem will, as we hope, suit the needs of a learner in the post Higher Secondary, semesterized undergraduate programme involing the development of English skills.
