We...Poetry of the Day - love your Bob Seger moment! We're happy for you to link to this post, and as the poet's work is now in the public domain you can use it on your blog too. She died in 1930, well over 50 years ago (the limit in this country.) If you quote Mark, you'll need to say so, and lovely if you could link to the Poetry Archive as well.

I chuckled to myself because it was just so opposite of what i was reading, as if the poem came to life and this song was playing on a Poetry of the Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11198064593715494884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298334170177578638.post-1060972773003192172011-02-01T23:39:51.938+13:002011-02-01T23:39:51.938+13:00This is lovely - archaic, but not excessively.

Despite the strongly English flavour of the imagery and 'landscape'--I would not have guessed she was a poet from NZ if you had not said--the poem has considerable emotional power and is almost contemporary in feel with that abrupt last line.Helen Lowehttp://helenlowe.info/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298334170177578638.post-30639435433503721992011-02-01T19:49:56.161+13:002011-02-01T19:49:56.161+13:00I love this poem, Mark.

I think that collections such as the SF poetry collection you edited with Tim Jones are valuable for allowing us to see the wide range of subjects in our poetry. What we need is an NZ gothic-horror poetry collection. Good choice.Harvey Molloyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13168420609485849643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298334170177578638.post-78770009096756308432011-02-01T04:28:06.925+13:002011-02-01T04:28:06.925+13:00i have come upon this poem before and liked it but...i have come upon this poem before and liked it but hadn't noticed or remembered who it was by so thanks for giving me another chance at itJennifer Comptonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13254781317505540179noreply@blogger.com
