These poems all feature places. Are they "about" places? It's hard to say. The place in each of these poems might really be a state of mind, a tradition, a set of memories, or something else entirely.
Elizabeth Bishop: At the Fishhouses
Adam Zagajewski: To Go to Lvov
Rita Dove: Daystar
Shel Silverstein: Where the Sidewalk Ends
How do you use places in your poetry? Share an example with us this Wednesday. Or share something else entirely.

Hi Tiel! A question -- you invite us to share responses with you this Wednesday, but in general people post their links here on Thursdays, right?
Rachel, good to see you here!
Some people post their responses Wednesday evening immediately after the response post goes up. Others post on Thursday. Responses keep arriving through Friday and into the weekend.
