here to see Billy Collins read three poems. He's a bit nervous and awkward at first, which is sort of nice to see in someone as revered as he. But by poem two, I was mesmerized by his voice and the cadence of his words. I think I'm going to include a copy of the poem Lanyard in my mother's birthday card later this month.

Thanks for the link, Bug. BTW, were there only two lessons from the residency worth posting about??
Cool! Y'know, today is Poetry Thursday. You should post there and share the link
LOL TI. I just got sidetracked/lazy. I'll post more soon. Thanks for keeping me honest. ;) And good idea Jan!
Ooooh fabulous. Thank you! I've only recently started reading him (love it so far!) so the timing is perfect for me.
Absolutely delightful... Billy is one of my favorite poets. I love his work the way I love the work of Gary Snyder. Thank you sharing this… ;)
