This podcast is for those who already love poetry and for those who know very little about it. In this podcast, we read a poem, discuss it, see what makes it tick, learn how it works, grow from it, and then read it one more time.

It is fantastic to listen to the close reading and exploration of poems by Ms. Diaz and Mr. Van Engen. They are both so thoughtful and engaging and bring so much care and attention to each poem. I would love to watch them live and in person! Anyone can hear their enthusiasm, it’s uplifting.
I just love this podcast! I’m not sure how I found it, but I’m certainly glad I did. It’s the only one I know that has such rich and warm conversations about poetry. And I feel I’m always learning something, as well as enjoying myself listening to it!
First of all, I am obsessed with the host Boston accent. As for the content, I absolutely love how they highlight the meaning(s), form, context and tools used by each poet to create a full experience of the poem. As someone who would love to get an MFA in poetry, but doesn't have the time or money, this podcast helps me indulge my passion for verse.
Historically, my relationship with poetry has been, well… sketchy. I enjoyed the presenters as they read and discussed the poem I listened to in Episode 92. As a beginner, the words of a poem don’t always jump off the page and into a meaningful experience. But when I listen to a detailed discussion of a poem (like the one I listed to today) the poem becomes more meaningful and relatable to me. For me, that is the value added provided by an excellent Podcast like “Poetry For All”. Thanks to ... more
I’ve just discovered PFA and could not have been happier. The discussion of Ted Kooser’s Winter Morning walks is great and made me wish for more.
Kooser is a national treasure and Joanne and Abram do a great job of highlighting his gifted skills.
Thank you.
