The link Poems at the footer of this site takes you to a list of poems.  Clicking on any poem in the list brings you to a page with sections that toggle to reveal the poem, a memorization aid, and, if available, a reading of the poem.

Contemplated, eventually, toggles where visitors can practice "typing" the poem (with history), and recording their reading(s).

A walk in the park and an inspired suggestion led to this site.   It uses a stripped down version of Robert Oliphant's technique for memorizing poems and other texts (PDF).
