Shylock Reasons with Mr. Chesterton and Other Poems (Classic Reprint) | Humbert Wolfe

This is the only collection of poetry I could find for Humbert Wolfe. It has zero reviews anywhere I‘ve looked. I would love to get this guy some reviews (even if he is dead). I just hate that he used to be so popular, and now he‘s just not even read (or even published it would seem).

I quite enjoyed this Whitman. I‘m finding that the more I understand poetry, the more I enjoy Whitman.

My sleep has been all haywire the last week and a half or so. That‘s thrown off my routine, so I‘m catching up in this book now.

TrishB Hope the sleep pattern settles down. 5y

GingerAntics @TrishB me too. It seems this happens every spring for some reason. I finally broke down and decided to try a weighted blanket. So much for amazon‘s two day shipping, though. Hopefully it will be here Tuesday. 5y

TrishB They seem to be quite popular 👍🏻 5y

GingerAntics @TrishB some folks swear by it. I‘ve tried all of the “sleep hygiene” stuff for years with no success, so I figured it couldn‘t hurt to just give it a try. I found one for a really good price, so we‘ll see how it goes. 5y

TrishB Good luck 🤞🏻 5y

GingerAntics @TrishB thanks 5y

Chrissyreadit I enjoyed this poem! I hope you like the weighted blanket- my husband loves his. Maybe your so excited about Spring it‘s like the day before Christmas? That‘s how I feel... seriously- hope you get good sleep. 5y

GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit I don‘t know. Until this year, spring wasn‘t really a thing since we were in Texas. It‘s just summer and not summer. This year, spring hasn‘t quite started yet, though we have lost all the snow (which makes me kind of sad, actually, though it does making walking places easier). I‘m not sure what it is, other than frustrating. It‘s been sitting in San Bernardino since Friday, so if this thing ever gets here, I‘ll be happy to try it. 5y

Look at that, a very lovely Limerick. This is a fun little ditty.

Chrissyreadit 🤣 5y

CBee Birds gotta do what they gotta do 😂😂 5y

GingerAntics @CBee if it‘s close, why spend the time and energy to go further? I‘m sure they have some lovely, fluffy, warm nests. 5y

CBee @GingerAntics definitely a good idea. Smart birds 🐦 5y

This was sad and beautiful all at once.
#JaneMcMorlandHuntet #ANaturePoemForEveryNightOfTheYear #Joetry2021 @CBee @Chrissyreadit

Chrissyreadit I had to read it twice. It was the most simple and elegant juxtaposition. Beauty and horror. I love poetry. 5y

CBee Wow. 5y

GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit it really is. Looking at the dates of the poet, this is definitely a WWI poem. Knowing how horrible those trenches were, to think there was (real or imagined) some moment of beauty in there made me tear up. 5y

GingerAntics @CBee right? It‘s so simple, but so powerful. 5y

CBee @GingerAntics absolutely! I can‘t imagine how hard it must‘ve been to find beauty during such a horrific war. But it‘s there, if you look and listen.... 5y

GingerAntics @CBee I‘d be so intrigued to read about the story behind this poem. Did it really happen, was the poet in the trenches and wrote this later to deal with it, did he hallucinate this while in a trench. So many of those guys came back with stories of strange experiences down there when things got really bad, and let‘s be honest even when things were “good” down there, they were BAD! 5y

CBee @GingerAntics me too! I‘ll have to look it up. I‘ve never heard of this poet. 5y

GingerAntics @CBee me either, but that‘s not saying much. I‘m still really new to poetry. Until last year, every time I attempted to read poetry, I would read like one stanza and think “this is stupid” and switch to something else. I knew a few poems, but that was it. A whole poetry collection was not happening. 5y

GingerAntics @CBee he was one of the most popular British authors of the 1920s, but is rarely read today. That‘s sad. I‘m still trying to hunt down a back story or even a discussion of this poem. 5y

CBee @GingerAntics I totally understand, I‘m the same mostly 🤷‍♀️ So he wasn‘t a soldier - here‘s the Wiki - and there really isn‘t much else about him. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humbert_Wolfe 5y

GingerAntics @CBee I know. Even his wiki is sadly short. I looked for some of his stuff on Amazon. They have a few, but none of them even have reviews. Apparently reviews are how suggestions are generated. With no reviews, he‘s not being suggested. I want to buy some of his work, review it, and see if I can get other people to review it, too. It wouldn‘t certainly take a lot of reviews. 5y
