I think the middle of this poem about the grosbeak wonderful, the beginning and end less so. I too would like to see more poems by Rexroth on Poemhunter, especially but not only his translations of Chinese poets from a millenium ago..

It is late at night, cold and damp. I am in England. It is a year later...and I would still like to find more poems by Kenneth Rexroth in Poemhunter. He is a wonderful poet. I wish more people could be introduced to him.

Limpid, reflective, this is Kenneth Rexroth at his best. I would be thrilled to find more by this poet. He wrote a lot and his collected works were published in a thick book by, I think, Penguin. I used to have it but I lost my copy.
