Rose Solari Tackles Frost, Coste Lewis, and Imaginary Landscapes in New Rose Reads
Rose Solari's style continues to evolve as she tackles more difficult poetic concepts. Hear her speak to poetry and song as "gifts," detail Coleridge's writing from a sick bed, remark on Frost's famous "Directive", and reminisce on Smokey Robinson in this new episode of Rose Reads.
In this episode of Rose Reads, Rose discusses and reads from poems that create self-contained universes. Authors include Frost, Coleridge, and Robin Coste Lewis.

Earth Day Reflections: To See for the First Time
“Our communications are profuse and immediate, as is our consciousness of the interrelationship of all that exists. We’ve seen what we often leave in our wake—homeless populations, spoiled wilderness. We can see the way the decisions and investments that we make, here, everyday, can effect just how much milk a baby in Uganda gets. Our world is a teeming, mysterious, multi-cultural mousetrap of a place where everything seems to hinge on something else. We share a new concept of this planet as a finite space, dense, and more difficult than ever to navigate. We live in an environment fraught with hazard, and it is important to have good guides, guides with insight—those who tread softly.”
