The joys of reading poetry outdoors
How have I never read poetry outdoors? Thank you for the update to my summer plans!
Great - let me know how it goes!
Have you read Borges ? I had a weighty book with samples of his work. Unusual is almost TOO MILD to describe it.
Borges is incredible
Unfortunately, Borges is so prominent in narrative, that is underrated as a poet. His voice is also impossible to forget.
This is such a good point, exciting considering so much poetry is about the outdoors.
Also interesting to consider from a teaching perspective - I wonder if reading pretty outdoors would help it resonate with students better. Something to try...
Thans, Evan. Definitely something to try!
Reciting is also an art, and a good poet maybe is not his/her best reciter. Anyhow, poetry alive!
"Honey universe" - what a great phrase.
Thanks, Troy. All the credit goes to Sr. Neruda, of course.
Your translation is lovely. 😁
Thank you, Victoria!
I love this! Thank you for reposting.
Thank you June!
