We can't have a poetry section without mentioning Ms. Plath. I love the poems that I've read. She was so gifted.

True, whenever I see poppies now, I think to myself "little poppies, little hellflames". Her work is haunting.
Oh, I would love to here her voice! I have to check out Your Tube
When Sylvia Plath was on target, her voice was very much like that of her poetry, immediately transporting one into another realm where I suspect she lived much of the time. I have a few original recordings of her. I am also gratified that I have never heard some of her more spiteful poetry, works which sadly intimate the great sickness she bore for many years within.
