Great Regulars: For a long time, Jane Kenyon was known as "Donald Hall's

little wife--who writes a little poetry too." But today there are few anthologies of American poetry that do not feature her as one of the strongest voices in American literature. She was New Hampshire's poet laureate when she died.

In this week's poem, she gets to the heart of the matter with characteristic simplicity, and depth.
