Sadly, we just lost a poetry-loving president. When Biden won last time, the RTE news in Ireland paid this tribute of him reading a poem by Seamus Heaney: youtube.com/watch?v=i37… Brought me to tears then, and makes me terribly sad now, however, this poem ends in hope. I still believe we will see brighter days again. Do not go softly into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
