“I admit that I am a book nerd. But even if you aren’t, The Daily Poem is easily accessible and covers a wide variety of poetry in short, easily digestible bites. The hosts do an excellent job explaining possible interpretations and pointing out key features (rhyme scheme, symbolism, etc.) without...”Read full review »

“This used to be a good podcast. This used to be a poem with a simple, light intro or review, but has turned into a long, droning poetry lecture that drowns out the actual poem. Poor choice of a new host and platform. Unsubscribing now.”

“What is there to say? Poetry is wondrous and if you love it or want to love it or need it or write it or are simply breathing, you should tune in to the Daily Poem. I love that the episodes are short yet we get to hear the poems twice. I wish they were daily, but appreciate the time put into it...”Read full review »

Also, they read each poem twice, as one should, to savor it. I’m sorry the episodes aren’t...”Read full review »

“No one has ever labeled me a “poetry” person. But I love this podcast. I used to view poetry as unnecessarily long-winded and repetitive, or even pretentious and removed from reality. This could not be further from the truth. As I’ve experienced good poetry I can see that when truth is delivered...”Read full review »

And feel my lungs fully expand.
