I just love this poem, Wheelchair, by Elaine Feinstein. Mrs. Feinstein has a beautiful upright sort of British voice. Not my usual cup of tea, but in context to the subject material that she is writing about and reciting, perfectly fitting.
The poem explains so well the intricacies of a long marriage. There’s pathos, humour, tolerance, patience, and adventure. There is “… hundred year old eggs and fishbrains wrapped in a bamboo leaf”.
Marvelous poem. Thanks for pointing us there. And I like the collage as well.
