The Poems of Samuel Peralta
The reference 'coping' is, of course, to Wendy Cope, who famously re-cast T.S. Eliot's 'The Waste Land' in limerick form.I met Wendy Cope when she was a judge of the UK Poetry Society & BBC's poetry competition - so wonderful in person! Short link - http://bit.ly/s4wasteland
Another brilliant Haiku!
Oh my -- very surprising and easy to memorize as well, for when I quote my favorite poet - YOU!
For you I wish that these poems were rubies, borne by my own caravan from Xi'an out of Shaanxi, through Persia, along the northern Silk Road.- S. Peralta, Twelve Stones on a Necklace
