What matter more than the sand between your feet? Especially in a world of constant flux. Maybe Bishop's right. Maybe we should look down as the tide roars around us.

Elizabeth Bishop, "Sandpiper"

Join me, Mark Scarbrough, on this bookmarked journey through some of the best lyric poetry in English . I've got a passion for small, evocative poems. I'd like to share that with out--as well as those poems, of course! Together, we'll encounter the core things that make us human: love, the inner life, the emotions, our notion of purpose, and our relationship with the natural world around us. Join me. We humans are made for each other!
