I love Denise Levertov and am consistently delighted the deeper I dive into her work. My favorite poem by her is “The Stricken Children” (Breathing the Water).
Another lover of Denise Levertov! Welcome! Isn’t she amazing? I will look up that poem right away! Yes, the deeper I go, the more delighted I am. I would have liked to meet her, but I’m grateful for the decades of work she gave us that allow me to walk beside her mind.
Anne, thank you for reading! I hope you enjoy reading about her work and life. She is a gem. I could have written about 50 of her poems. It was hard to choose just a few. Let the co-nerding out journey begin!

Oh my, I found it and read it. "Children who don't dream." Heart-breaking.

Thank you so much for sharing this, I clearly needed to be introduced to Levertov and will nerd out on her work and life along with you ✨💓
