A very good friend and mentor suggested that I should spend 15 minutes every day reading poetry, so I've started the practice today using autumn as my theme. Here are the poems I read (aloud) in the span of 15 minutes. I plan to reread these and make some reflections in the near future.
"North of Boston" and "November" by Maggie Dietz
"The Hawk's Cry in Autumn" by Joseph Brodsky
"The Season of Phantasmal Peace" by Derek Walcott
"The Thrush" by Edward Thomas
"Autumn" by Joan Mitchell
"November for Beginners" by Rita Dove
