    Our new Poet Laureate, Peggy Rozga, in WIsconsin, has started the discussion on poetry by asking everyone what their favorite poem is. Just like this article stated, everyone has a favorite poem.
    I really enjoyed reading this.
    Thanks, Mike.

      Hard to choose just one poem as a favorite but at the moment I would choose “In Just-” by e.e. cummings.

      Let’s throw this out there. What’s your favorite poem?

    I thought I’d added my favorite poem earlier today. So here it is again:

    Romanesque Arches by Tomas Tromstromer. During a life-threatening illness, someone read it to me and gave me a copy. It was instrumental in my healing.
