Brb, I have to go get my hands on everything MAC Farrant has written. This surprising book of free-form poetry oscillated between the tender & frank and the absurd with acrobatic ease. Every page felt like a surprise and a gift, the literary version of Cracker Jack. It delivered so darn often that I grew to understand there was always something good and extra at the bottom of the box. #nationalpoetrymonth #poetryeverydamnday

Drowsy morning Mary Oliver feels like a good and much-needed stretching session. She instills such a sense of gratitude. Rain falling through the fire escape, a break in the August heat, everything passes through the prism of her poetry and emerges a reason for celebration! #poetryeverydamnday

I will forever love this anthology for introducing me to the poetry of Tu Fu. #poetryeverydamnday

Some Mary Oliver to soothe your soul. #poetryeverydamnday

As I've said before, I always try to be in the process of reading at least one book of poetry. I think I've been needing this volume's tender approach for a while. #poetryeverydamnday
