TS Eliot reads "Ash Wednesday"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEUlzDTGd44

    This powerful poem recounts Eliot's conversion to Anglo-Catholicsm. I have used it in Ash Wednesday sermons, and was going to this year as well, until the doctor started me on Tamiflu. I do nto have the flu, but I am not 100%.

Amelia Earhart's Lost Lyric Poetry



 
   More proof that poetry influences or affects more people than one would realize! The LitHub has a fascinating post about some scattered poetry by aviator Amelia Earhart, including a rejection letter.

   The article speaks for itself. What impressed me was how much she loved poetry and her talent. 

    Joni's Mitchells song and some background on it are from the second link. And so we have a true multi-genre presentation!
