When I was thinking about Poetry Month for this year I knew I really wanted to find something different for me to do in order to feel more involved. So in addition to my native garden inspired Haiku per day I asked my publisher if I could have permission to do a few audio recordings of some poems from Hugging the Rock.
And they said YES!
I have permission for do one audio recording for each Poetry Friday in April. I knew which poem I wanted to do first but I’m still trying to pick out the other three. If you have a favorite, let me know.So here, for the very first time, is an audio of the first poem in the book. It’s called, NO ROOM. I hope you like it.

Waaah! The audio isn’t working for me.
Oh waaah! Does it work if you go straight to the link:

Oh, no. That doesn’t work either. I get a message saying that I can’t connect to the server, “www.backup.susantaylorbrown.com”
Phooey. Maybe I’ll try a browser other than Safari.
I love that poem! I have many other favorites, but I vote for “My Crowning Glory” and “Good-bye.”

Oh My Crowning Glory fits in perfectly with something else. Good-bye is another good one. Thank you.
What a treat is to hear you read! Thank you! All the wonderful things that happens during Poetry Month!

You have a great speaking voice.
For future readings, my absolute favorite would be Conversations.
