Poetry Friday: What We Need



"What We Need" by David Budbill is too short (copyright issues, you know!) for me to post even a snippet of it without permission, so I'll send you straight over to The Writer's Almanac.

It's what you need today.

Heidi Mordhorst has the Poetry Friday round up at My Juicy Little Universe.

So true.

Thanks for the gift.

Oh indeed. Sometimes the message doesn't need to much fancying up.

I mean TOO much : )

Kimberlee said...

This has been a difficult week, not the least of which has been a bullying military-style police force in Missouri. Budbill's poem is perfect.

Karen Edmisten said...

Thanks, all, for joining me for a dose of kindness, peace, and and joy.
