Mood Shift

#moodshift #poetry15

I’ve been thinking about the wonderful news that Ada Limón is our 24th Poet Laureate. I admire her stunning poems for the way they capture subtle shifts in mood and tone with precise and effortlessly conveyed yet perfectly created imagery and observations. There are so many wonderful videos of Ada Limón sharing her work online (I love this one), and I also recommend watching this interview where she speaks about accepting the prestigious position. And if you haven’t checked out her podcast, The Slowdown, which Electric Lit calls “a literary once-a-day multivitamin,” I linked it so you can!
