I thought it would be good to have a new thread. Please screenshot or link your favourite poems, and maybe say what they mean to you.
After two weeks of feeling somewhat ill and old, I offer this one.

Marigold, you and I obviously dance around the same Facebook area - I saw this poem on Facebook yesterday! And I've noticed other posts on here - jokes etc, - that I've just seen on Facebook!

Yes there are some good groups on FB, it’s not all nasty rubbish.Our town has several local groups too, which keep us all up to date about what’s going on and in lockdown the community support group was invaluable for shopping and medicine requests etc for vulnerable people isolating. My faves are the Laughing Librarian and the Norfolk Terrier groups. Lots of pics of irresistible Norfolks every day!
Keep sharing!

One of my absolute favourites, and a warning to us all. I'm more familiar with this as a beautiful song.

I don't understand ?
It's saying that if you've a problem with someone, you're better to sort it sooner rather than saying nothing, because it will fester and the problem will increase, and become more destructive.

I love this poem by Emily Dickenson. Even though i don't understand it all, It just lightly touches the dark places in us, like a dream we know couldn't be real, but which leaves us feeling vaguely disturbed and uneasy.
