If I Wrote A Play

Landscape Is My Religion. ...god In A Green Legend, I Lean Over The Pool In A Testament Of Leaves. I Dangle My Twinkling Mood Before Me In A Cool Cave Roofed With Branches And Floored With A Skin Of Water.

I Was Very Interested In American Poetry For Many Years. Much Less Now.

When I Talk Of Hearing A Poet's Voice Speaking, I Always Think Of It As In The Presence Of The Man.

But I Hang On To Books. I Love Them. I Even Think They're Very Nice Decor In A Room - Far Better Than Paintings... That's Not Quite True!

In Some Ways I'm A Reticent Man, And For Quite A Number Of Years There Wasn't Very Much Of My Real True Deep Feelings In My Writing.
