The Place Where We Are Right

[Larry Robinson]

The Place Where We Are Right

From the place where we are right
flowers will never grow
in the spring.

The place where we are right
is hard and trampled
like a yard.

But doubts and loves
dig up the world
like a mole, a plow
and a whisper will be heard in the place
where the ruined
house once stood.

	- Yehuda Amichai
	(translated by Chana Bloch and Stephen Mitchell)



Some of you have told me that you did not receive the daily poems for the past couple of weeks.
I am not sure why that happened, but if you would like to see the poems you missed you can visit the archives: https://lists.sonic.net/pipermail/poetrylovers/ <https://lists.sonic.net/pipermail/poetrylovers/>.
