Poetry in Motion, Day 4 (Jane Hirshfield)
Today's Poetry in Motion poster was inscribed by Jane Hirshfield to me at the 1998 Geraldine Dodge Poetry Festival.
The poem is:
The Groundfall Pear
It is the one he chooses,
Yellow, plump, a little bruised
On one side from falling.
That place he takes first.
