A picturesque word tour through the Granite State As a rule, I don't seek out poetry but, as #newhampshire by #robertfrost won the #1924 #pulitzerprizeforpoetry , it falls under my #pulitzerprizereadingchallenge and, in all honestly, it was lovely. Downloading the work onto #audible as well as having an ebook version in which to read along on my walks, I found his descriptions of the people and places of that lovely and sparsely populated founding state a delight. While the collection includes "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening," arguably his most famous poem, I was particularly moved by, "For ET", written in honor of fellow poet #edwardthomas , who was killed at the #battleofarras in #worldwari . I also enjoyed the longer piece #twowitches as well as #thekitchenchimney which was a.simple but elegant piece with a subtle tribute to #henrydavidthoreau . Overall, it is a wonderful and completely accessible book of poetry dedicated to a beautiful place that captured Frost's heart.
