Dear Friends,

I spent some time last night reading for today’s curation, choosing poems that most spoke to me, as I always do. Re-reading them this morning, I realize I really like these poems—that is, they are welcoming and charming, conveying a kind of intimacy between the speaker and the absent other that’s playful and thoughtful. They are such good company—and that seems like just the right note for a Wednesday.

As always, let me know which you enjoyed most and share your stories with me. I read all of your comments and love getting to know you.
