This page contains an index to the first lines of the poems and prose pieces of CJ Dennis that I have
been able to find. Links are only included where the titles have been transcribed. As you might
expect this number is rather small at the moment but it will increase over the time ahead. Where
possible I will include details of first or major publication. Details of which Dennis publications have
been transcribed into the listing are
available.
