Twenty Poems | Anna Andreevena Akhmatova

#NationalPoetryMonth #April #day18 #water #AprilPoetryChallenge
These poems were translated by Jane Kenyon with Vera Sandomirsky Dunham in 1985. They are included in her book, Collected Poems, which is how I was introduced to this Russian poet.

BooksandCoffee4Me Ah, someone else who knows and appreciates Akhmatova‘s poetry! Last year when I was teaching adult Ed English language learners, one of my students from Russia read one of Akhmatova‘s poems with me for the class, I reading in English and he reading stanzas then in Russian. 5d

Breasts and Eggs | Mieko Kawakami

1. Forget-me-nots, primroses, gerbera, snowdrops

2. The cover of the German edition has flowers on the cover and reminds me of spring. The flowers, the colours - this cover feels like the essence of spring to me. 😊

Trashcanman What are you up to this weekend Samantha? 3w

Yuki_Onna @Trashcanman My plans have been crashed as I'm sick. Yesterday I had a high fever and could hardly walk. Today it's a bit better, luckily. The fever has gone.
How's your weekend so far? 3w

Trashcanman Oh no! I‘m so sorry to hear that. Do you have e someone to look after you? I hope you feel better soon. My weekend has been good overall. Mostly good. More good than bad. I hope that we can have some deeper when you‘re feeling better. Nothing that makes you uncomfortable. I just wanted to catch up. It‘s been years. 3w
