The Terror and Pleasures of Robert Frost

Tumbling with Poetry

To tumble is to come to understand, which aptly describes the role poetry has in our lives: A poem can help us navigate the human experience, whether it is our triumphs, our failures, or simply illuminating our truest nature. But how often do we encounter poetry in our daily lives? In a technologically-inundated world, true reflection is losing ground and while Tumblr would seem incongruous as a setting for poetry, hopefully this tumblr can serve as a small source of daily inspiration, as poems are a salve for the capriciousness of the cosmos.
