Show Notes
Cold Plunging
Kristin Yates
Breath leaves my lips
like a bird, and
I feel the cardinals
and the chickadees
and the cold
in my hands
sing.
I become the shiver
of saying it:
I love you
enough
to let you live.

Write After: National Poetry Month with One Poem Only
Write After is a way to encourage poets to listen and write, and use National Poetry Month to highlight how listening to poetry makes us better poets. I know I write the best when I’m surrounded by beautiful poetry–it’s part of the reason I created this podcast, and I want to encourage others to share this practice. We'll get started in April. You can share to #WriteAfterOPO.
