NaPoMo QOTD The Last Best Quote to Read. Ok, Not Really, but the Last One I'm Blogging About.

"Ink runs from the corners of my mouth.
There is no happiness like mine.
I have been eating poetry."
 - Eating Poetry by Mark Strand* (PoLau '90-'91)

Finding snippets and reading poems for these blogs has been so enjoyable for me. I am a bit embarrassed to say that I hadn't heard of about half of these poets. Now I can't imagine not having this book sitting by my bed. I can't speak highly enough of this collection. The pictures of the PoLaus and the extra biographical information adds to the experience of the poetry. If you haven't bought this book yet, do it! Seriously, it's awesome.

Thank you so much for eating poetry with me.

Thank YOU so much for sharing it and you with us. You have a beautiful mind and a beautiful spirit, Jerusha. But then I am not surprised. :)

We'll miss your potpourri of poetry. You should pop back and visit us sometimes.

Thank you! I certainly will. My brain is already churning with my next idea for a blog series. :)
I've really enjoyed your posts, too, Jerusha, and hope you'll come back often!
