A review by ida_ree
Flame and Shadow (Dodo Press) by Sara Teasdale

5.0

Sara Teasdale was such a great poet. If you could take the best natury goodness of Mary Oliver and the best cutting to the bone wit of Dorothy Parker, then meld those two into one poet, it would be Sara Teasdale.

"There Will Come Soft Rains" gives me chills every time I read it -- equal parts comfort and dread with the knowledge that this world could well go on without us humans.
