"Afternoon Happiness"

10 March 2017:

"Much as I want to gather a lifetime thrift
And craft, my cunning skills tied in a knot for you,
There is only this useless happiness as gift." --Carolyn Kizer, "Afternoon Happiness"

I heard this poem today as I caught up on the "Poetry Off the Shelf" podcast on my way home today. It's funny and sweet and just lovely. Read the whole thing here.
