a poem begins.

Posted on March 27, 2019 by beth

a poem begins with a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong,

a homesickness, a lovesickness.

Frost is a favorite, and this quotation has stayed with me since I first read it, years ago. It’s good to be reminded of it.

When I had a website, before I switched to my blog, I had this quote as the tag line at the top of the page. One of my favorites, and so true.

I just wrote a poem about writing, in part inspired by this post when I came across it a few days ago! The words were a lump in my throat, after all… Haha, thanks for sharing! 🙂
