Can I have more than 50 'number of posts' to show?

  I have 65 poems in my WordPress blog and I would like to list all of them in a contents list on the front page – with a live link to each one…
  But I can’t seem to type in more than ’50 posts to show’ in the Widgets section.
  ie. If I try to ask for ’65 posts to show’, it keeps reverting back to 50 posts to show.
  This is disappointing.
  Sincerely,
  Glenn Hall.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Staff provided this reason for reducing the number of titles that appear in the Recent Posts widget:

  There were some fatal errors and timeouts in cases where a blog loaded an extremely large number of posts in the Recent Posts widget or Posts per page setting (in Reading Settings). https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/problems-with-widget-recent-posts?replies=16#post-1032040
