Dear Rohini Kejriwal: I have been reading your newsletter for a while now, and I just wanted to thank you for all you have given me and others. I especially enjoy the rich variety of poems you share. I live in NYC, and it is refreshing to get glimpses of the world through other eyes. For 23 years, every Sunday without fail, I have sent a poem that I have found and like to a growing group of friends and colleagues, as well as people whom I don't really know at all. I can't imagine that you need another source of poems, but should you want to be added to the list, let me know at richardgbruno@gmail.com. This week's poem, #1171:
Couldn't stop myself from skimming through the new issue on a busy workday. Welcome back! Will peruse later, but from my first reading, thank you- one pink dragonfly lover to another. https://www.flickr.com/photos/ravisha-mall/2952902139/ (PS: it's not an active account anymore, but it was nice to have a nudge to revisit this.)
Also, OMGosh - it's a small world. Ansh was an intern under me at MTV. So happy to know he's running Studio Bavl now and is collaborating with the "right sort" of creators. :P

Memory
first dream I remember
maybe I was three
wearing a little coat
you were pushing a baby carriage
down the block away from me
you were running
my mother my queen
I was trying to catch you
Alice Suskin Ostriker
I spent the pandemic in therapy too! felt like a long, warm hug ❤️
