Joining Tom now is the wonderful, award-winning poet Grace Cavalieri. She was appointed Maryland's poet laureate in 2018, a post she will leave later this month. And, for more than 40 years, she’s been the host of The Poet and the Poem, first on public radio, now a podcast from the Library of Congress. She has a new collection of poems, some new, and some previously published. It’s called The Long Game.  Grace Cavalieri joins us on Zoom from her home in Annapolis…Email us at midday@wypr.org, tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.
