"Mending Wall ", all about good neighbours - a poem by Robert Frost in 1914
This is one of those rare poems which can be found in countless anthologies, hence read and appreciated by generation upon generation the world over. Frost wrote it way back, in the plain speech of New England farmers in the USA.
It came back to prominence in the Cuban missile crisis of 1963 and again in 2016, as Donald Trump began his disgraceful campaign around "build that wall".
The cadences pulse with deeper, darker themes, paradoxes inherent
in all human relationships.
I really enjoyed illustrating it with copper plate intaglio etchings. Why not make 2021 the year when you let the creative impulse to building positive relationship guide your thinking.
