I don’t have a perfect plan for Poetry Month this year, no special events, no original poetry from a schedule of poetry veterans. But I will be reading a lot of poetry this month and sharing it with others. And more than likely it will spill over here each day. A favorite from this past week of reading:
Part Two: Nature
XCVII
TO make a prairie it takes a clover
and one bee,—
One clover, and a bee,
And revery.
The revery alone will do
If bees are few.
-Emily Dickinson
ooh, I didn’t know this one. Thank you for sharing it.
This poem (which I don’t remember reading before) makes me smile! Thank you.
Thanks, girls! Made me smile too. I am such a prairie-maker.
The revery alone will do
If bees are few.
So brilliant. Thanks for this!
She was, wasn’t she?
