#OTD Galway Kinnell, American #Poet, is born.He won a #Pulitzer for his Selected #Poems (1982), & found inspiration in #WaltWhitman & #Nature.
His #Poem "St. Francis & the Sow," begins:
The #Bud
stands for all things,
even for those things that don't #Flower,
for everything #Flowers, from within, in #SelfBlessing;
though sometimes it is necessary
to #Reteach a thing its loveliness,
to put a hand on the brow
of the flower
& retell it in #Words & in #Touch
it is #Lovely
