  • Derek Walcott - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Derek Walcott - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Derek Walcott(23 January 1930) Derek Walcott OBE OCC is a Saint Lucian poet, playwright, writer and visual artist who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1992 and the T. S. Eliot Prize in 2011 for White Egrets. His works include the Homeric epic Omeros. Robert Graves wrote that Walcott "handles English with a closer understanding of its inner magic than most, if not any, of his contemporaries”. <b>Life</b> Early Life Walcott was born and raised in Castries, Saint Lucia, in the West Indies with a twin brother, the future playwright Roderick Walcott, and a sister. His mother, a teacher, had a love of the arts who would often recite poetry. His father, who painted and wrote poetry, died at 31 from mastoiditis. The family came from a minority Methodist community, which felt overshadowed by the dominant Catholic culture of the island. As a young man he trained as a painter, mentored by Harold Simmons whose life as a professional artist provided an inspiring example for Walcott. Walcott greatly admired Cézanne and Giorgione and sought to learn from them. Walcott then studied as a writer, becoming “an elated, exuberant poet madly in love with English” and strongly influenced by modernist poets such as T. S. Eliot and Ezra Pound. Walcott had an early sense of a vocation as a writer. In the Poem "Midsummer" (1984), he wrote Forty years gone, in my island childhood, I felt that the gift of poetry had made me one of the chosen, that all experience was kindling to the fire of the Muse.

    Poetry Library All your ‘Poems of the Week’ in one collection w/c 14.05.20 Atlas by U.A Fanthorpe There is a kind of love called maintenance Which stores the WD40 and knows when to use it; Which checks the insurance, and doesn’t forget The milkman; which remembers to plant bulbs; Which answers letters; which knows the way The money goes; which deals with dentists And Road Fund Tax and meeting trains, And postcards to the lonely; which upholds The permanently ricketty elaborate Structures of living, which is Atlas. And maintenance is the sensible side of love, Which knows what time and weather are doing To my brickwork; insulates my faulty wiring; Laughs at my dryrotten jokes; remembers My need for gloss and grouting; which keeps My suspect edifice upright in air, As Atlas did the sky. w/c 21.05.20 This week we've chosen a couple of poems written by Dorset HealthCare colleagues. The first is by Suzie Thomas after undergoing an operation and she'd like to dedicate it to all the frontline staff who are putting themselves in harms way for the rest of us. The second is by Adele Sales, imagining the world on the other side of the pandemic. Walking Angels (NHS) by Suzie Thomas, E-procurement Co-ordinator If only there were people who toiled and cared for everyone out there? If only there were people who at our darkest moments of turmoil and fear were there to care? People who would tuck you in bed with love and compassion Even though they’d been dashing to another, even though they themselves are crashing.

  • Caribbean Poems
    Caribbean Poems Martin Carter 1. Death of a Comrade (1950s) Death must not find us thinking that we die too soon, too soon our banner draped for you I would prefer the banner in the wind Not bound so tightly in a scarlet fold not sodden, sodden with your people's tears but flashing on the pole we bear aloft down and beyond this dark, dark lane of rags. Now, from the mourning vanguard moving on dear Comrade, I salute you and I say Death will not find us thinking that we die. http://silvertorch.com/c-poetry.html 2. I Clench My Fist (1953) You come in warships terrible with death I know your hands are red with Korean blood I know your finger trembles on a trigger And yet I curse you – Stranger khaki clad. British soldier, man in khaki careful how you walk My dead ancestor Accabreh is groaning in his grave At night he wakes and watches with fire in his eyes Because you march upon his breast and stamp upon his heart. Although you come in thousands from the sea Although you walk like locusts in the street Although you point your gun straight at my heart I clench my fist above my head; I sing my song of Freedom! http://silvertorch.com/c-poetry.html 3. Do Not Stare at Me Do not stare at me from your window, lady do not stare and wonder where I came from Born in this city was I, lady, hearing the beetles at six o'clock and the noisy cocks in the morning when your hands rumple the bed sheet and night is locked up the wardrobe.
