Poetry

LISTENING TO JOHN HANNAH-

Does anyone remember hearing John Hannah recite (with his lovely Scottish burr) WH Auden’s beautiful poem in 4 Wedding & a Funeral ? It still gives me goose bumps and was worth buying the DVD just for that alone.
From SIMPLY PUT my latest book of poetry with a wide range of what goes through my head and my heart. It’s like a buffet of words….enjoy!
LISTENING TO JOHN HANNAH~arlene sandra bice
When John Hannah
recites
The Funeral Blues of
Auden
from his heart
his memory
I know he weeps
in deep sorrow
as his Scottish burr
brings a deeper love lost
tears fall
mourners remember
