Today’s poem is a Heaney favorite, and goes out to all of the couples tying the knot this summer.
Nice one. Congratulations to your friends, and it touched me personally, too, as my son is getting married this summer.
After 40+ years of marriage
Even our wall has holes in it
But yes it stands
One of my perennial favorites.
This is one of my perennial favorites.
Wow.
we may let the scaffolds fall . . .
a beautiful image of enduring strength
