My son found this book of poetry in Maria Popova‘s Marginalian. I am just opening the book & choosing a poem by title, not consistently reading. I am in awe. #poetry

Hands down - my favourite poet!!! Truly mesmerising!
Went to the bookstore and came across a poetry collection I read and loved a few years back. It's called Map by Wislawa Szymborska. This is my favorite poem of hers. Its crushing to feel like we've just put wars to bed for another one to creep up and I really hope things settle down instead.

I love these lines from the poem Advertisement, also from the wonderful Wislawa Szymborska.
Born on this day in 1923, one of my absolute favorite poets, Wislawa Szymborska.
Until I get #MyShot at a job, I‘m trying to enjoy my time by reading, reading, reading 🙌 I haven‘t felt in the mood for a proper novel the past few days, so my current reads consist of a poetry collection, a book about what we should value in our current society, and then I‘m listening to the audio of The Amber Spyglass 📚

Celebrate #NationalPoetryMonth with a Nobel Laureate in Literature! This book was on three of my reading challenges; #ReadHarder2017 book of translated poems not about love, #LetterM of #LitsyAtoZ, and Reading #NobelWomen. Since its everything she's published, not all are absolute genius, but the later work definitely was. Some took my breath away. A list of faves was on my blog review here: http://wp.me/p6D5Ti-4NJ
I'm about halfway through this book of poems and came across this today. Still so true but maybe fading a bit. I hope....,
Nobel Prize winning Polish poet. Faves include...
"Hitler's First Photograph"
"Still"
"Photograph from September 11th"
Read her! You will not regret it.
