Confession: I had never read Wendell Berry's poetry before yesterday. I went to my friend Alison's house, and while she read to her little girl Eden, I read the book I found in the hallway. A book of Berry's poetry. I may have found a new favorite author. This lovely poem reminded me of my new home. The picture below is the cathedral in St. Andrews.

I just wanted to say thanks, Kat, for all the wonderful poems you've been posting. I had not read a lot of them before now, but they were great! I especially enjoyed hearing the personal reasons you liked them; that context made them even more delightful! So thanks again!
