And, THANKS to you, Barb. I just read this one twice--once from Poetry Foundation and once from you. Have a lovely Thanksgiving.

Amen to that! Jim Powell brought him here years ago when booking the best of the best wasn't so prohibitive. Were you there?

Barb: Yes, Merwin’s poems are always wonderful discoveries— and another thing for which we should be thankful.
