truth & beauty

It’s Poetry Month! Whenever April rolls around, my email inbox is treated to a poem a day from the thoughtful folks at Knopf. If you haven’t signed up for this free service yet, please do so. Click here to subscribe, as well as to view a whimsical video they created that shows the delight poetry month brings.

I know the poem in the above photo is on the sad side. Delight?! Where’s the delight? But it’s one of my favorite group of lines and I think it’s a shining example of how poetry can leave us breathless with its truth and beauty.
