In Honor of W.S. Merwin

W.S. Merwin died on Friday, March 15, 2019 at his home in Hawaii.  His poetry was a gift to us. 


"Gift" by W.S. Merwin


I have to trust what was given to me
if I am to trust anything
it led the stars over the shadowless mountain
...

I must be led by what was given to me
as streams are led by it
and braiding flights of birds
...
