National Poetry Month
Apr. 23rd, 2009 12:34 pmThis Month is National Poetry Month, so I thought I would post my favourite poem. I used one verse for Michael in the Book of Rememberance and another for my mother in the same book. I have indicated the verses I used for each of them at the end of the poem.
The background is that it was written for his male lover when the lover died.
( On the Death of Joseph Rodman Drake )
I hope you like it, and maybe you can post your own favourite poem as well so I can read it.
