About this listen
Hi friends,
A casual one today, recorded in bed, on my phone. I am usually more meticulous about my recordings and what I say, but let me know if this more conversational format resonates with you.
Today’s poem is “Rain” by Raymond Carver.* Here it is copied below:
Woke up this morning with
a terrific urge to lie in bed all day
and read. Fought against it for a minute.
Then looked out the window at the rain.
And gave over. Put myself entirely
in the keep of this rainy morning.Would I live my life over again?
Make the same unforgiveable mistakes?
Yes, given half a chance. Yes.
Happy 2023. Love always.
<3 Tara
*from All of Us: The Collected Poems by Raymond Carver, published by Knopf, 1996.
