In honor of National Poetry Month, I have chosen to feature a special writer who is no longer with us. I hope you enjoy these three poems by May Sarton. Visit the BLUE HERON SPEAKS page of this site to read:

Now I Become Myself
The Phoenix Again
When a Woman Feels Alone

We have to dare to be ourselves,
however frightening or strange that self may prove to be.
― May Sarton
