Celebrity Poetry
"What is it about celebrity poets that rile 'serious' writers of poetry?" The Poetry Foundation is there to find out. What? You're all riled by the poetic magic that is Leonard Nimoy?!
I give you a selection of his work:
I am convinced
That if all mankind
Could only gather together
In one circle
Arms around each other's shoulders
And dance, laugh and cry
Together
Then much
of the tension and burden
of life
Would fall away
In the knowledge that
We are all children
Needing and wanting
Each other's
Comfort and
Understanding
We are all children
Searching for love
