I love this woman
Thank you. This is beyond beautiful.
Team Lyn.
I love how Sharon Olds gets up and demonstrates through her body how the lines go in her work.
Pity the sound quality is so bad. Captions would have assisted. Interesting insights however.
Awesom!
Whoops! Meant awesome - with an ‘e’
Nice
I've just finished reading Ms Limón's recent book Bright Dead Things. She is a poet for whose writing I am exceedingly grateful. And now I have to read her other books!
A heartwarming video that shows how one town celebrated Poem in your Pocket Day -- wonderful! Just what I was looking for to get ready for the day tomorrow. Thank you for sharing i!
What a level headed person! We need more of her!
Poem: Sir Thomas Grey's "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard" Poet: Jack Kerouac Poetry: Haiku
I enjoy her voice.
I love this
It's been said by a friend that the poet wrestled Joan Baez and easily won
Same here --learning Stevenson's poetry in school gave me a lifelong love for it!
Its kind of like asking me to name my 10 favorite films - I have 10 such lists. I fell in love with several poets - first - but one was T.S. Eliot. Don't ask me why, but perhaps because I could memorize lines from Prufrock, and Four Quartets. Also, I memorized the opening lines of Homer's Odyssey in Greek, I feel in love with language, then.
Thank you, much appreciated...
Thank you, this has been added to a playlist...
hello there
Thank you, Susan, this has been added to a playlist...
How I love the way Rita Dove describes seeing the lines, and better; how she describes how she feels about them.
Interesting stuff, Rita Dove makes a lot of sense.
Thank you for posting this video about Poem in Your Pocket Day. I recently learned about this Day and decided to write a web page about it and I have included your video. Thank you!
thank you for being you...
