Our favorite Featured Poet here on Loveland Beacon Poet’s Corner shared the following story about today’s feature poem: CO-RIDER’S MY NAME

Here is her story:

This was my very first poem that I wrote and I sent it to Wing World Magazine. My greatest unhappiness was the editor ruined my list of duties by putting an “I” where the person thought it should be – “I clean his glasses” – and “I raise up his collar” – “I unwrap his lozenges” etc. My grocery list never says; “I need milk” it simply says; “Milk”. I never sent them another poem.

By Susan F. Adams – October 22, 1994

NOTE: Published in the February, 1995 Issue of “Wing World”
