Dearly: New Poems by Margaret Atwood
4.0
Given the popularity of the Handmaid's tale, I didn't expect to read poetry as an entry to Atwood's work and it's great! I particularly love themes centered on death and loss, and not too fond of the pollution and climate change-themed ones.
Dearly beloved, gathered here together
in this closed drawer, fading now, I miss you.
I miss the missing, those who left earlier.
I miss even those who are still here.
"Dearly" is tender, as the soft fluttering of your heart, missing people who were once in your life
