#46 - Two poems diverged in a podcast and I took the one less often heard
In this episode, I read a few poems by Robert Frost - three in fact none of which I have read before - Dust of Snow, Neither Far Out Nor In Deep, On looking up by chance at the constellations. I find Robert Frost's poems rhythmic, simple and insightful. Like I say in the episode he has the attentive poet's gift of taking a momentary observation and making it momentous. There is a lilt in his poems that belies the seriousness of his observation and his introspection. If you are having a dull day, find yourself five of his poems and just read. It is immensely uplifting. Listen in!
