Poems by Linda Pastan
Remembering Frost at Kennedy’s Inauguration
... s, and briefly the president would be ours ...
Eyes Only
... in leaves, or the sky in exclamations ...
Misreading Housman
... with the new blossoms like identical twins  ...
The Obligation to Be Happy
... And so I smile, as if my own fidelity ...
At the Air and Space Museum
... ? one flick of his hairy wrist ...
Mosaic
... of its own, the way the boy has  ...
The Deathwatch Beetle
... of insects but simply because of the sound  ...
