Cheers to you, to the passage from winter to spring, and to Ina Coolbrith. That's a lovely poem that could be a lovely song as well.

🎉🎉🎉 THE MOON OF LOVE

Thank you for this.

Ur underated u channel is peaceful I like ur channel

I do not crave to have thee mine alone, dear Keeping thy charms within my jealous sight; Go, give the world the blessing of thy beauty, That other hearts may share of my delight! I do not ask, thy love should be mine only While others falter through the dreary night; Go, kiss the tears from some wayfarer’s vision, That other eyes may know the joy of light! Where days are sad and skies are hung with darkness, Go, send a smile that sunshine may be rife; Go, give a song, a word of kindly greeting, To ease the sorrow of some lonely life! - Otto Leland Bohanan

Grieving isn’t a topic many people want to talk about so glad to see it highlighted here ❤

They died for our freedom. Never Forget. June 6, 1944

Love this review! I completely agree with Rebecca about this fantastic series :)

I have come across references to Walden in many things and always meant to find out more - but never did. Thank you Rebecca for bringing Walden and Thoreau's transendental reflections on the wild and simple life to me. Beautifully read with beautiful images (as always). you really cast the writer's spell over me.

I think it is so hard to express such depth of feeling in so few words. That is a poet's art. The gardens are stunning. They lift the heart

Rain brings an awakening to the ground and everything says it is time to wake up... that is poetry in and of itself Rebecca as is the joy of being alive in one day. I think there is nothing better to aspire to than the joy of being alive for one single day. The ducks in the background the view over the park- all contributed to the atmosphere of this lovely celebratory poem which so elegantly puts into words what we mere mortals often fail to.

Well documented

And this is one of the reasons why Wordsworth is so revered and loved. He speaks of our losses and that golden moment accompanying the rememberence of someone you have lost. Beautifully read as always, Rebecca.

A touching poem- beautifully read

Such a beautiful garden and so well presented. You captured its transendental quality, and of course the quotes were the icing on the cake

I confess to be utterly charmed by you two. And Beowulf to boot. Well impressed!

Thanks

Tankyou so much

Beautiful video and narration. Thank you!

Rebeca.Yeah,you uploaded top view, talk you later! )

thanks i was just thinking of this poem 🤍

Very interesting. Thanks for posting.

VERY NICELY READ WISH TO HEAR AGAIN AND AGAIN EXCELLENT NARRATION

Interesting how the meter has been tamed in this translation. Greetings from a Rilke fan. 🌺

very enjoyable Rebecca- Loved the Handel piece at the beginning

World Famous Betty's- Forget the Minster, no visit to York complete without tea and a cake there.

I only ever knew the first 2 lines- nothing else not even who write it. It is a powerful and haunting piece full of longing. Beautiful

A lovely tribute to Teagan. It deserves to be publicised for its inspirational quality- as you say a book to make you think

I have never heard this lovely Rhyme before. Thanks you, Rebecca

Wow

It is hard for a prose writer to present an argument simply. It is doubly hard for a poet, who must distill a whole argument into a few well chosen lines. Mary Jo tackled a great metaphysical question beautifully. John Dunne would be proud of what, and how, she said.

Lovely reading. Is there nothing you cannot do with your voice!

Remember watching the Barretts of Wimpole Street ages ago. What a great film. I find Browing's Oh to be in England such a romantic poem, full of broken hearted longing. This is a lovely poem too. It says what you feel your heart without words. Lovely background music too.

Snow and blue skies - magical. Lovely words and some great advice

I don't think Leo meant to recommend Burton's unxepurged version of the 1001 Arabian Nights to the under 14s- It's pretty racey! Although if he did good on him. I read Last Exit to Brooklyn at the age of 13. Mind you it scared the pants off me. So perhaps that's what he intended.

What a stunning piece Rebecca

Hope you had a happy Burn's nite haggis!

Lovely words- beautifully read

A new venture? sounds good

Happy New year to you and Don, Rebecca

I love listening to you speak. As for the poem, so many people try to capture the magic of snow and sometimes sound trite. Longfellow does it beautifully. I's not only pleasingly lyrical, but it has a strong robust form with interwoven rhymes that match the interweaving of ideas - external nature descriptions compared and contrasted with internal brooding reflection.

There is a lot of tenderness in this poem, Rebecca. A happy 2022 to you and to us all.

Wishing all a happy reading - Saw the BBC series and it was very good.
