You are not alone

These podcasts have a way of dropping into your center and chasing out joy where you least expect it. Reading poetry outloud is a very different experience than reading it on paper. You feel Dale’s calmness iand you feel calmer too. It’s a wonderful way to keep poetry in your life.
