    Today's poem on Penny's Poetry Blog:
    A March Glee, by John Burroughs

    I hear the wild geese honking
    From out the misty night,—
    A sound of moving armies
    On-sweeping in their might

    A different John Burroughs I suspect...?

    ************************ John Burroughs – National Beat Poetry Festival 2020 – Watch Here

    John Burroughs is a nationally-touring poet and performer from the Cleveland area and the author of over a dozen poetry books including Loss and Foundering, Water Works, Electric Company, Beat Attitude and The Eater of the Absurd. In various past lives,
    John’s blog was ranked #1 on MySpace, he won the first poetry slam he ever competed in, he served as playwright-in-residence for the Ministry of Theatre at Marion Correctional Institution, and he co-founded the infamous monthly Lix and Kix Poetry
    Extravaganza and almost-annual Snoetry: A Winter Wordfest. John has edited Cheap and Easy Magazine, two Best Cleveland Poem Competition anthologies, two Hessler Street Fair Poetry anthologies, the Oct Tongue literary annual, and the anti-censorship
    collection Fuck Poetry. He is perhaps most proud of his work since 2008 as the founding editor of Crisis Chronicles Press. You may find him on Facebook and at www.crisischronicles.com. ********************



    Definitely not the same guy. I'd like to get him onto the wiki, too. Too
    bad he's not in Wikipedia, and I could just reprint the info with
    credit. I can't find any copyright info on the NBPF page, so I'm going
    to assume it's All Rights Reserved.

    The John Burroughs I've got is best known as a naturalist and an
    essayist. A birdwatcher, he wrote a lot of essays on birds, and one book
    of poetry, /Bird and Bough/; this is the second poem I've used from it.
    In poetry circles, though, he's best known as the author of two books on
    his friend, Walt Whitman.
