A poem to watch if you have 5 minutes

Posted By on Thu, Jan 9, 2014 at 9:27 AM

If you can carve out time this morning to sit quietly for 5 minutes and listen, here is a lovely poem called "Dandelions" that Mark Anderson performed in December at Anthology, the literary variety show benefit for RiverLit, which raised enough money to pay all its contributors this year.

It’s about the inevitability of loss, but it’s not depressing.
