Dear Poetry Aficionados,

IBPC: Poetry & Poets in Rags

If you like the sonnet, scroll into Great Regulars and check out Linda Sue Grimes' offerings this week. She looks at seven of them, from different times and in different styles. Carol Rumens' poem of the week is a sonnet as well.

We begin, however, in News at Eleven, with Helen Vendler looking at Simon Armitage. On our Back Page there, comes this phrasing: "there is no nation where the people love poetry more," about a country which celebrated with a poetry festival.

There is a whole lot more to discover, and I will leave that for you to do. Thanks for clicking in.

Yours,
Rus
