While darkness does its work.

This is my third year reading poetry most nights before bed. This is my second Wendell Berry collection. I keep coming back to these simple, profound words that speak to pretty much every aspect of life.

a pair of cupped hands

1 Comment

Life often won’t freely give you moments of joy. Sometimes you have to wrench them away and cup them in your hands, to protect them from the wind and the rain. Art is a pair of cupped hands. Poetry is a pair of cupped hands.
