A Foundation in Poetry
Posted on September 21, 2011 with 0 commentsIn the face of unemployment, I've decided to keep connected to things I love and the rest of the world via some mini-blogging. Poetry foundation is the website that Garrison Keillor reads from during NPR's Writer's Almanac. Whenever I listen to him read, I'm transported into whatever world the poet has conjured. I thought I'd share a poem from the site on a regular basis to provide the opportunity to connect to that kind of inspiration.
Today I read "Flurry."This one reminds me some personal experience, and I like the cadence of it. Her description of tears and their "burning leaps" feels right on target. What do you think?
