Poetry Friday



...I just sit there under the floor lamp early in the morning and work and see what happens. Nine days out of 10, nothing good comes of it at all. Maybe on the tenth day, if I'm lucky, some little thing will start a poem.

  3. Thanks, Linda and Janet. The lamp illustration is just the kind of lamp I imagine he sits under, too-- a little old-fashioned looking, but fully functional!

  4. There's a quote that makes me feel better about life (or at least not alone..)
