I have a lot of those seemingly mundane memories from childhood that are actually not mundane at all.

Tamra @merelybookish he is able to capture with such clarity ordinary moments and objects that are moving and without dripping sentimentality. 7y

Finished my second book for the #readathon, this lovely book of poetry. I don't usually read poetry and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Any other poetry recs for me?

Krissajeldy @CareBear thanks! I'll check it out. 7y
Tamra Anything by Kooser and he also has a wonderful poetry postcard correspondence with Jim Harrison compiled into a collection. 7y

I really enjoy Kooser and will have to restrain myself from gobbling up all the poems in a sitting. I found this newest collection at Shakespeare & Co. (Missoula), which is a carefully curated shop with lots of small press works and owner recommendations. 🤗

Tamra Btw, here is a 300 poem postcard exchange between Harrison & Kooser that is wonderful. (edited) 7y

Ted Kooser finds the beauty and sacredness in small, everyday moments. When he speaks of vast things, he relates them to his own human context. He is a wonderful poet. #poetry

When you have a poetry deadline fast approaching but the words aren't coming, you just need to read a little Ted Kooser.
