The challenge is to keep up with all the new poets at the same time I love the old ones.

And it can keep you as busy as anything else, and happier.

To find a new word that is accurate and different, you have to be alert for it.

Joy is not made to be a crumb. (Don't Hesitate)

I have a notebook with me all the time, and I begin scribbling a few words. When things are going well, the walk does not get anywhere; I finally just stop and write.

When it's over, I want to say: all my life I was a bride married to amazement. I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms.

Sing, if you can sing, and it not still be musical inside yourself.
