US Poet Laureate Ada Limón on Returning to Wonder
Update: 2024-08-28
Description
Ada Limón is the 24th Poet Laureate of The United States and the author of six books of poetry. Her most recent project, You Are Here: Poetry in the Natural World, is a collection of poetry that she edited in collaboration with the Library of Congress focused on how poetry can help us reconnect to the world around us.
In this episode of Tricycle Talks, Tricycle’s editor-in-chief, James Shaheen, sits down with Limón to discuss how poems bring us into the present moment, her practice of loving-kindness and how it influences her writing, why she believes poetry can help us decenter our sense of self, and how writing can be an act of offering something back to the planet. Plus, she reads a few poems from her recent collections.
