Poems for February 14-- Pittsford Only

Two poems outstanding:  Enough, by Ellen Bass and the Ursula LeGuin that Judith so thoughtfully  (and carefully!) typed up. I put them in again… 
To hear Danez Smith  (who wrote “little prayer”)  in action at the Chicago Humanities Festival :  (thank you Kathy) "Dear White America  - a poem from his book Don't Call Us Deadhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSp4v294xog
Such a different tone from the one we read.   To feel calm again, try reading “Little Prayer” backwards:
Let it be
& if not,
let this be the healing
& find a field of lilacs
… etc.

Poems:

**
Heart to Heart by Rita Dove 
Battery by Anne Waldman,
What Words Will by Richard Wehrman
