  1. I've come across her, she writes beautifully. Not overlooking 'beer' is that Wainright as in 'Lake District'.

    1. A Wainwright seemed the fitting drink to celebrate a peak of poetry.

  2. M'agrada com juga amb els contraris i la seva no rima.

    Suportar la nostra part de nit,
    la nostra part d'alba.
    El nostre buit omplir amb delit,
    el nostre buit amb desdeny.

    Una estrella aquí i una altra allà,
    alguns perden el camí!
    Una boira aquí — i una altra allà —
    i després - El Dia!.

    1. I aleshores quan passa el dia,
      torna a venir... la lluna.
