No, not another silly search term poem. My sister Sarah is sharing her gift for analyzing poetry at Long Live the Weeds. Richard Wilbur (the perfect Real Poet for the easily intimidated) speaks about thaw and refreshing doubt. Check it out!

You had me at “Long Live the Weeds” (Gerard Manley Hopkins reference = WIN). Will definitely check out Sarah’s blog…. thanks for the heads-up, Simcha.
PS: Talented family all around!
Love Richard Wilbur and so do my kids – as long as you avoid illustrations by Drescher.
Thanks, Sim!
