Poetry in London

This poem was inspired by the painting Flaming June by Sir Frederic Leighton. This recording is from a reading I did with poet Kate Noakes, in London, England, last year. There was snow on the streets and I spent my evenings beside pub fireplaces to defrost after spending hours in various inspiring house museums, including the absurdly beautiful Leighton House. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to read in London, and reconnect with friends there.
