Favorite Poems: Endangered by Billy Collins
http://favoritepoems-rebecca.blogspot.com/2010/03/endangered-by-billy-collins.html
Poetry by featured poets. Friday, March 26, 2010. Endangered by Billy Collins. It is so quiet on the shore of this motionless lake. You can hear the slow recessional of extinct animals. As they leave through a door at the back of the world,. Disappearing like the verbs of a dead language:. The last troop of kangaroos hopping out of the picture,. The ultimate paddling of ducks and pitying of turtledoves. And, his bell tolling in the distance, the final goat. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Stories and...

Poetry by featured poets. Thursday, March 25, 2010. Weighing the Dog by Billy Collins. It is awkward for me and bewildering for him. As I hold him in my arms in the small bathroom,. Balancing our weight on the shaky blue scale,. But this is the way to weigh a dog and easier. Than training him to sit obediently on one spot. With his tongue out, waiting for the cookie. With pencil and paper I subtract my weight. From our total to find out the remainder that is his,. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Poetry by featured poets. Wednesday, March 24, 2010. Candle Hat by Billy Collins. In most self-portraits it is the face that dominates:. Cezanne is a pair of eyes swimming in brushstrokes,. Van Gogh stares out of a halo of swirling darkness,. Rembrant looks relieved as if he were taking a breather. From painting The Blinding of Sampson. But in this one Goya stands well back from the mirror. And is seen posed in the clutter of his studio. Addressing a canvas tilted back on a tall easel. As he stood in the...

http://favoritepoems-rebecca.blogspot.com/2010/03/forgetting-how-to-look-learning-how-to.html
Poetry by featured poets. Tuesday, March 23, 2010. Forgetting how to look, learning how to read. I can see them standing politely on the wide pages. That I was still learning to turn,. Jane in a blue jumper, Dick with his crayon-brown hair,. Playing with a ball or exploring the cosmos. Of the backyard, unaware they are the first characters,. The boy and girl who begin fiction. Beyond the simple illustrations of their neighborhood,. The other protagonists were waiting in a huddle:. We were forgetting how ...

Favorite Poems: The Hunt by Billy Collins
http://favoritepoems-rebecca.blogspot.com/2010/03/hunt-by-billy-collins.html
Poetry by featured poets. Saturday, March 27, 2010. The Hunt by Billy Collins. Somewhere in the rolling hills and farm country. That lie beyond speech. Noah Webster and his assistants are moving. Across the landscape tracking down a new word. It is a small noun about the size of a mouse,. One that will be seldom used by anyone,. Like a synonym for isthmus. But they are pursuing the creature zealously. As if it were the verb to be. Swinging their sticks and calling out to one another. Poem by John Lavan.
