First (real) Snowfall, 2011
The Snow Man ~ by Wallace Stevens
One must have a mind of winter
To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;
//And have been cold a long time
To behold the junipers shagged with ice,
The spruces rough in the distant glitter
//Of the January sun; and not to think
Of any misery in the sound of the wind,
In the sound of a few leaves,
//Which is the sound of the...

"the desire to show you to everyone I love"
Twenty-One Love Poems ~ by Adrienne Rich
II
I wake up in your bed. I know I have been dreaming.
Much earlier, the alarm broke us from each other,
you’ve been at your desk for hours. I know what I dreamed:
our friend the poet comes into my room
where I’ve been writing for days,
drafts, carbons, poems are scattered everywhere,
and I want to show her one poem
which is the poem of my...

The Raven (This never gets old!)
The Raven ~ by Edgar Allan Poe
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
“‘Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door -

Annabel Lee
Annabel Lee ~ by Edgar Allan Poe (it’s october, i love halloween, and i love edgar allan poe, so expect to see more of him…)
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
//I was a child and she was a child,
In...
