A pleasure Jeremy. I really like your description of them as having a ‘wise solidity’ - very nice. The poems are all from different magazines from the 1920s, and haven’t appeared anywhere since as far as I know, until this post. ;-) Let me know which poem you want to cite and I can get the reference to you. :-) What are you writing? Would like to hear more!
Thanks for sharing these! They have a satisfying, wise solidity. I'd like to cite one in something I'm writing: where did you find the text?
