Sunday Picnic In the Sweet Coolness of Evening

Sunday, every Sunday, let's have a community picnic. It's probably been a long week, and it's lovely to have a few minutes to sit back and relax and enjoy some good conversation in a less formal space. Feel free to bring something for the Picnic Basket - a poem you liked this week, a thought you had or something you experienced, or even something completely unrelated to poetry whatsoever that you just feel like sharing. Just take a moment to say hello, and maybe have a bite to eat; no one is going anywhere fast, and the shade promises some relief from the everyday heat. Let’s get to know each other a bit better, here under the branches of the poet’s tree.

This week I hosted over at poetry; you can browse a roundup index of my posts of favorite poems-in-translation from The Vintage Book of Contemporary World Poetry here.

Other nifty thing - this one technically from the previous week, but I didn't have time to get around to sharing it at last week's Sunday Picnic - I wrote and posted a new poem I'm quite pleased with: Sensuum

Feelings are the language of your body
the self that runs ahead of thought
like an eager dog
