Today's Poetry Thread: REJUVENATION

This little poem quite often keeps me sane. Feel free to add poems.

[Ilya Kaminsky @ilya_poet]

“A poet is a nightingale who sits in the darkness, and sings”

—Shelley, in Defense of Poetry

"In the dark times
Will there also be singing?
Yes, there will be singing
About the dark times."

—Bertolt Brecht
