Seasonally this poem is a bit early, but I love that fall feeling of hunkering down

I was reading this collection before his death was announced and finished it now. It is a beautiful selection, culled by the poet himself, from the entirety of his career. Many of the poems center on his care-giving and ultimate loss of his beloved wife Jane Kenyon. A stunning introduction and survey of one of America's greatest poets.

I love this picture of Donald Hall. RIP to the former Poet Laureate and husband of fellow poet Jane Kenyon.
