Bill Grace - Late Evening Reading of Sharon Olds

After the run for ice cream <br />After the dinner guests have left <br />After the dog is walked and cat given obligatory insulin <br />I read her poetry, <br />Wonder at the power of her words <br />Admire her many levels <br />Read her words with phonetic care <br />A displaced poet in her class A world <br />Who wanted most not only to eat but to eat well.<br /><br />Bill Grace<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/late-evening-reading-of-sharon-olds/
