    Teasdale's always a great read; like Sylvia Plath or Emily Dickinson, I could run one of her poems every month.

    The problem is that I'm running out of poems by her. Thanks to the U.S.'s Mickey Mouse copyright act, most of her books are still in copyright there, and still offline. They're in the public domain in most of the world, but they're harder to find.

    I found "June Night" not in a book, but on a poetry site, AllPoetry. https://allpoetry.com/Sara-Teasdale

    PS - I copied from an aapc thread. But here's some new info on rap only:
    Today I blogged a similar poem, "A June Night" by Emma Lazarus, and found a nice picture of Sunset Beach to use in the Facebook previews. I couldn't add that to her her poem, as it's already long enough. But since Teasdale's poem is on the same subjects (
    June, night, ocean), and at 8 lines needs something extra, I used it there. If you go back to that page, you'll see it.
