[Boris Dralyuk @BorisDralyuk]

An autumnal ballad-sonnet hybrid for Edna St. Vincent Millay, a master of both forms. I thank Ken Gordon of THE SONNETEER for giving my poem a little plot in the sun.

@GarlicAndPearls I love your podcast so much. I was born in England, am a devoted Francophile, and live in the U.S. I have always been intrigued by the ubiquitous French striped shirt. Would you ever consider doing an episode on it? Thank you so much!

@murielzagha @GarlicAndPearls I adore your podcast and always learn something fun and new.

@murielzagha @GarlicAndPearls @SuzanneRaine2 I have always been obsessed with tweed. It is such a fascinating history about Harris Tweed. Thank you for the education!

@murielzagha @SuzanneRaine2 @GarlicAndPearls I am a poet and gardener, English-born to Irish parents, devoted Francophile, and now California resident. A dear friend gave me a bottle of Penhaligon's Bluebell a few years back, ushering in the obsession with these elusive flowers! Love the podcast!

@murielzagha @GarlicAndPearls @SuzanneRaine2 I thoroughly enjoyed this episode and learned a great deal!

Two of my poems in the latest issue of Illumen! The one about the second sun was inspired by an 1899 interview with Nikola Tesla about his plans to electrically illuminate earth like a second sun.
