Poetry Thursday: ”The Sparrow’s Skull,” by Ruth Pitter

Welcome again to the new "Poetry Thursday" feature of The Inklings Variety Hour.

This week, we're reading a poem by Ruth Pitter, someone who was not an Inkling but knew C.S. Lewis and a few of the other Inklings.  I had Don W. King on the show to talk about her, and you can find that interview here.

You can find the poem I read here, by the way.

And here's a book of Pitter's poetry.

I hope you enjoy--if you do, please leave a five-star review on iTunes so that others will be more likely to find the show.

Also, please feel free to write me at inklingsvarietyhour@gmail.com if you have ideas for poems you would like to hear read on the show.

The idea for the format of Poetry Thursday is ripped pretty shamelessly from The Daily Poem, which is a great podcast.
