“Today we are still writing of birth and death, love and hate, peace and war. We shall still be writing of these things tomorrow. It is therefore your own manner of perception that shapes your work and distinguishes it from that of any-one else."
So glad they resonated LeeAnn. As far as I can tell while her novels have been rediscovered/republished, her poetry hasn't really been as of yet. It gets mentioned, but not reprinted. I'm looking forward to looking her up again in 10 years and seeing what I can find from the 1930s that hasn't been unearthed yet. Yeah - agree so much, her work is such a gift! It's a genuine pleasure LeeAnn - thanks so much for the lovely comment.
Love this Gale Wilhelm wisdom:

Yeah., agreed - so good! :-)
So dreamy! Your final poem! Real rain and cinematic.
Aww cheers Pilgrim! 🖤

Layers upon layers of beauty. Such tenderness when we sorely need it. Thank you, Dick 💛

These are my favorite two lines.
And I wondered,
Why are we looking for God?
Ya - they're good ones alright! Cheers as always for reading Harley.
