I was sad to read of the death of the poet Douglas Dunn. A quiet voice, always a resonant one, probably still best known for his first mature poetry collection 'Terry Street', 1969, but 'Elegies', 1985, stands one of the great collections of the late 20th Century.

"Near Miss" by Fanny Howe, born #OTD in 1940. Read more: poets.org/poet/fanny-howe
"Near Miss" by Fanny Howe displayed as follows: I almost met you On a Saturday In Gloucester. The wind blew easterly. There was a jar of mums On a table near the window. Their yellows were calling To each other. Place-names Were put back In the pencil drawer Before I noticed your shadow.
