Description

Today’s poem is sights and sounds on my way to you by Geleisa George. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, guest host Shira Erlichman writes… “There are things we come to see only by slowing down. Today’s poem is an ode to observation. As the speaker makes moves to meet her beloved, we get lost in her quiet noticing, which is, in and of itself, an arrival.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
