words from Merwin


If you want to come after me for any reason
I have left money in the bread-box,
Heart in the ice-box,
And in the mail-box, around the key,
A handkerchief for good-byes.

("Route with No Number")

Though a number of links I came across your site and I am glad that I did. Its always a joy to come across a bit of poetry while blogging alone.

True -- and indeed there's quite a lot of poetry in the blogosphere. You might find some of my (many) links of interest too.
cheers,
