Thank you for sharing this. This is the first time I've seen it (had to work today) and it gave me goosebumps. So lovely.
Yes, it was mesmerizing.
Yes. Thank you for sharing this on your blog, I was watching it live and then my dog needed to go outside and I missed the rest which was so disappointing, so it was wonderful to see it all here on your blog. So beautiful.
mere words put together in the right order creating such power and depth........the tears filled my eyes as the words kept coming from his mouth....
I fell for him pretty quickly. Wonderful.
Thanks for sharing this. I didn't watch the inauguration (too loooong :))and so didn't see this. Wonderful!
The first thing I always do is watch the inaugural poem online. This year's had so many beautiful lines.
I'm glad to find others who do the same! Thanks!
