It's National Poetry Day
It's National Poetry Day and the team at RMS has come over all literary.
We’ve all taken five minutes to think about poems that mean something to us – some are deep and meaningful (hankies at the ready), others are just a bit quirky and fun. Let’s salute the power of poetry ... now where did I put my quill and parchment?
Andrew: Auguries of Innocence - William Blake
Lucy: Warning - Jenny Joseph
Dave: The Gnome - Syd Barrett
Natalie: After the lunch - Wendy Cope
Alastair: Poetry - Pablo Neruda
Heidi: Matilda, Who told Lies, and was Burned to Death - Hilaire Belloc
Victoria: Optimistic Little Poem - Hans Magnus Enzensberger
Rachael: Fern Hill - Dylan Thomas
Dawn: Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone - W. H. Auden
Peter: Digging - Seamus Heaney
Dan: I dig, you dig, we dig, he digs, she digs, they dig. It's not a beautiful poem, but it's very deep
John: Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone - W. H. Auden
