The Relaxing Poetry Podcast by Erika Torres

“The Guest House”, “Legacies”, “Wild Geese”

Welcome to the second episode of the relaxing poetry podcast. Today I am going to be reciting three different short poems. The poems are “The Guest House” by Jalaluddin Rumi, “Legacies” by Nikki Giovani, and “Wild Geese” by Mary Oliver. I found these three poems thanks to the “Book Riot” 25 Poems About Life and Resilience, When Life Is Just Too Hard article by Melisa Baron. I might also mention some fun facts about poetry that I found thanks to this other article called “10 INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT POETRY” by Chloe Simpson, remember to stay tuned for a poetic surprise.

A little bit about me

Hi, in this first episode you are going to get to know a little bit about me, and my experiences with poetry. I'm also going to be talking about the reasons on why I selected this topic. In this episode you might hear about my great uncle since he is a poet and has inspired me to write poems. I can't wait to tell my experience with poetry, and why do I like it so much. Hope you Enjoy it!
