This is the common air that bathes the globe.”

I read this over a few lunch breaks. I loved it! I can't find it for purchase used anywhere 😂#bookproblems #poetry #litsypoetry
Still in Russia in my reading 📖💗
Also two of these qualify for #litsypoetry #poetry 📖📚💗
two day old
seed-filled bird
feeder
hanging from
the porch —
having birds come
fills our home
with what is
outside
our home:
as much
a part of our lives
as the furniture
we sit in
food we eat
books we write
waiting
waiting for birds to come

Back to bed we go!
SNOWDAY!!! #poetry #litsypoetry
Many of us don't think of ourselves as poetry readers - for me it was the poetry I had to read in school and uni; so much of it was inaccessible and difficult to relate to. But modern poetry is a different beast and I am enjoying the ride. A finely written poem is a blow to the heart, it's the martial art of writing. Neil Hilborn is so sharp you don't even realise you've been cut until you see the blood. #neilhilborn #litsypoetry
A new book of poetry recommended by a friend. Seems the perfect time for it, here in Pennsylvania! #bookmail #litsypoetry #poetry #poetry365 #litsypoetry365
So excited to read Donika Kelly's BESTIARY, winner of the Cave Canem Prize. Thanks to @graywolfpress for sending it! #poetry
Littens, are any of you also poetry readers? How do you find other verse enthusiasts on @Litsy ?
