Dear Poetry Aficionados, Poetry & Poets in Rags blog We know who England's next poet laureate will be. But we also know who was named as Canada's fourth Parliamentary Poet. These are our top two stories. In Great Regulars, you'll also find two poems by and two interviews with outgoing Poet Laureate Andrew Motion. But back up to News at Eleven. The third story is about women writers in Afghanistan, just how much so many want to be educated and to write, and just how dangerous that can be, maybe moreso now than ever. We have dozens more links to poems and articles about poets and poetry. Thanks for surfing by on your way out to the world. Yours, Rus Our links: IBPC: Poetry & Poets in Rags Poetry & Poets in Rags blog IBPC Home ~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||

. Looks like she's thinking about it: The Times: Carol Ann Duffy has yet to make mind up on being next poet laureate. But, she will not be offered the laureateship unless she is sure to accept it. But again, she must have known she was high on the list. So, how can this be? We'll know in a day or two I suppose. . |
