Billy Collins new book of poetry is now in my hands.
"Horoscopes for the Dead". What a gruesome title, what enjoyable poems.
From the poem "The New Globe", page 39.
"It was a birthday gift..."
"...glows from within at night..."
"... You will not see a seabird or a fellow sitting on a wall..."
"Just don't get lost like me..."
The blue planet.
Earth.
Terra.
Beautiful.

An interesting collection of globes. Is it yours?
I have that Bright Wings book, but haven't read in it yet.
the second globe is beautiful, never seen anything like it. i too wonder if these are all yours.
Yes, Kathy/Sandra.. all mine. More on the shelves. Wanna see 'em?
Banjo - the book is fun reference material for bird poems. And bird drawings.
A simple poem which says it all. And a lovely collection of globes to illustrate it... I must admit not knowing this Billy Collins.
I love globes and at one time had a small collection, which gradulaly got lost in our many moves. I love this entry and your photos.
Duuuuuuude! Glowbular!
Wow, Brenda, these are fab.
