I remember arbitrarily picking up a book of his work in a Barnes & Noble in high school and falling in love with the words. My all-time favorite is 'The Canonization'- it made love seem bold, and worth fighting for, and I've carried that poem with me for many many years. <br /><br />This book, specifically, is super special to me. David bought it for me on a business trip very early in our relationship after I bored him one night and made him listen to me read poetry. It's from the Seattle University Library and there is a big blue 'DISCARDED' stamped on the bottom of the pages. I really like all the old English spellings and typography, too. <br /><br />Anyway, thanks for reading! I hope your summer in Wisconsin is off to a fantastic start!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06919624349500891677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7983019681529197418.post-4962783588709196022012-05-30T00:08:35.547+01:002012-05-30T00:08:35.547+01:00I see you have John Donne in your stack of favorit...I see you have John Donne in your stack of favorite things. I've always liked the Holy Sonnets, particularly 'From the round earth's imagined corners'.
