Poems from Atlantic Monthly, New Republic, Poetry, etc.
"The students of snow", "Moss" and "Twig" (which ends with "In the wind an old oak/ shakes its twigs/ like a stag at mating time") are "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird" poems. All of them are ok.
I like how "The Scholar's Stone Garden ends - Who can say a stone has come to naught?/ That it will not flower/ after centuries of silence?
"Magic" is my favourite. "Your name is Greek" and "Special friends" aren't.
