I had to read the second poem in english this year. I’ve always hated poetry and not been able to understand it. But after reading this I have a new found love for it.

I enjoyed both poems, although I preferred the first to the second. I thought it was interesting how one poem seemed to be about sharing while the other was about withholding. I think that it’s a good idea to be able to tell the difference between the two situations.

Alice Walker is my all time favurite author and I often remember her deep and powerful words in times of angst or conflict. Her poems are as simple, beautiful and evocative as her fiction.

I especially love this line from the second poem:

“But needs grow too fast;
they come up like weeds.
Through cracks in the conversation.”

Evocative image. Thanks for sharing!

I love Alice Walker. I saw her speak a long time ago at my University.
