I love Sara Teasdale -- she was always my favorite and I have a few of her books of poems. She was my mother's favorite, too. Thank you for sharing her poem with us.violetladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02029256237420904005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-87112967593834253432009-04-09T17:29:00.000-04:002009-04-09T17:29:00.000-04:00Oops!

I'm the author who just deleted her own comment, because of a typo and also I found out the name of the poem I refer to.<BR/><BR/>I have always admired Sara Teasdale, right down to her poetic name. Did you know that the most volatile and passionate poet Vachel Lindsay was crazy in love with her, scaring her to death?<BR/><BR/><BR/>Always loved "Spring Night," with its haunting description of night, and the line "Why am I crying after love?" among many others. Thanks for sharing this one I didn't know!Mary Loishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01515655542270431289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-16093369164417848392009-04-09T14:20:00.000-04:002009-04-09T14:20:00.000-04:00I just discovered ST a few years ago, and really e...I just discovered ST a few years ago, and really enjoy her work.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-77714876489179813332009-04-09T13:19:00.000-04:002009-04-09T13:19:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Mary Loishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01515655542270431289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-46941155303098204122009-04-08T13:10:00.000-04:002009-04-08T13:10:00.000-04:00Probably it sings a bit sooner where you are now, ...Probably it sings a bit sooner where you are now, Colleen!Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-15702117303686153902009-04-07T21:44:00.000-04:002009-04-07T21:44:00.000-04:00It does sing, doesn't it, even when all evidence s...It <EM>does</EM> sing, doesn't it, even when all evidence seems to be to the contrary.Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07583840141441745223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-35942863056049389952009-04-07T18:36:00.000-04:002009-04-07T18:36:00.000-04:00Evaberry, Thank you! yes he is ours. a wether.Co...Evaberry, Thank you! yes he is ours. a wether.<BR/><BR/>Commonweeder, I just love her poems!<BR/><BR/>Mindy, I'm so pleased.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-67618625176138746032009-04-07T14:12:00.000-04:002009-04-07T14:12:00.000-04:00I loved this!
