WorldPoetryDay

"Yes, I read. I have that absurd habit. I like beautiful poems, moving poetry, and all the beyond of that poetry. I am extraordinarily sensitive to those poor, marvelous words left in our dark night by a few men I never knew."
~Louis Aragon

Enoch Arden And Other Poems | Alfred Lord Tennyson

Look what arrived today, eventually...
My #AprilPoetrySwap .
Right now, I don't know how to feel, however. Happy that it wasn't lost entirely or sad about what little arrived of what lovely @kaysworld1 originally sent.
The envelope was ripped open completely on two sides - left was the tagged book.
A wonder it was still in there. Kay originally sent trhee books, chocolate and a card. I guess the envelope wasn't sturdy enough. I'm just sad now. 😭

Yuki_Onna @kaysworld1 Of course, darling. I'll send them by email, ok? On the pic posted you already see the plastic wrap repackage by the German Post...
Postal loss/damage is just.... 😡 And it took them three weeks to deliver the parcel? Come on... 3y

Yuki_Onna @kaysworld1 Nope, darling. It's not your fault!!! I'm happy with the Tennyson book, don't get me wrong. But seeing on the customs declaration what you originally sent is tough... 3y

kaysworld1 @Yuki_Onna Yer it is saddening to be honest. The 2 missing were from my personal collection I thought you might liked. 😭 xxx 3y

TheBookHippie HOW SAD..............so sorry all around!! 3y

Yuki_Onna @kaysworld1 Oh noooo... 😫 This is soo... *sigh* Happy to own a Tennyson now, but to know that you sent two from your collection that are lost ... 😧 3y

Yuki_Onna @kaysworld1 Hey hun, didn't you get the suggestions in the swap confirmation list? Wait, I'll post some... 3y

Yuki_Onna @kaysworld1 Hun, just a request: When you send out the parcel, could you please give me the tracking number? Remember, German Post/DHL have messed up delivery of last swap and with quite many international parcels ... They sometimes delivered to a different person or dropped it at a random post office... So you'd really help me if you gave me the tracking number! 🙏🤗 3y

kaysworld1 @Yuki_Onna I was going to any hun. I've received your package your is going our Monday 3y

Yuki_Onna @kaysworld1 Oh yay! So happy to hear! 🤗 3y

Yuki_Onna Oh dear, I missed it, too! 🤐 So happy you are my swap match! 🌸🌸🌸
(I'm also stealing your pic, if I may?) 3y

kaysworld1 @Yuki_Onna Go ahead. I'll spam everyone with poetry and books to make up for missing it xx 3y

Yuki_Onna @kaysworld1 Honey, some suggestions for the #AprilPoetrySwap :
Poetry that's hard to get here I'd love to try is by Lord Byron, Lord Alfred Tennyson or Lewis Carroll.
Specific poetry books I'd love to receive are Pillow Thoughts or Pillow Thoughts II by Courtney Peppernell (I already have PT III) or Ariel by Sylvia Plath. 😊 3y
