"Cold worlds shake from the oar."

Such vivid imagery. ?

I suspect I will be channelling Sylvia all month.

Excellent choices. I especially love the bookmark with my name on it. Thanks @MaGoose #poetswap

I know, I know! I said I wasn‘t doing Plath....but as soon as I saw Crossing there was no way I couldn‘t do this one.

#NationalPoetryMonth I‘ve read Plath so many times, she still fascinates and delights . I haven‘t read Waxworks but plan to tonight, reviews say she has her own voice, but it must be a blessing and a burden being the daughter of Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes .She paints , she writes and illustrates children‘s books too.

" Bronzed as earth, the second lies,
Hearing ticks blown gold
Like pollen on bright air. Lulled
Near a bed of poppies,

She sees how their red silk flare
Of petalled blood
Burns open to sun's blade.
On that green altar

Freely becomes sun's bride, the latter
Grows quick with seed.
Grass - couched in her labor's pride,
She bears a king."
