I already had something by Whitman and Frost. (I really wanted to put in something from “Once by the Pacific”). I don’t recognize the third. Even Google didn’t help.
Thank you. Wonderful poem—horses! I’ve subscribed to her podcast, "The Slowdown." I got an email from the Christian Science Monitor today announcing their podcast, "Why We Wrote This." It seemed like serendipity, so I subscribed to it, too. Like I have time to listen to any of this.
Hey, Catherine,

I remember so many of those poems. I loved memorizing old poems and reciting them. Odd, I’m sure. But thanks for the memories.
We read children’s poems to our boys when they were babies, long before they knew words. But they loved the rhythms and our varied voice inflections.
