"Rain" by Raymond Carver

from The Devotions Podcast Hosted by Tara

Put myself entirely / in the keep of this rainy morning. Hi friends, A casual one today, recorded in bed, on my phone. I am usually more meticulous about my recordings and what I say, but let me know if this more conversational format resonates with you. Today’s poem is “Rain” by Raymond Carver.* Here it is copied below: Woke up this morning with a terrific urge to lie in bed all day and read. Fought against it for a minute. Then looked out the window at the rain. And gave over. Put myself entirely in the keep of this rainy morning.Would I live my life over again? Make the same unforgiveable mistakes? Yes, given half a chance. Yes. Happy 2023. Love always. <3 Tara *from All of Us: The Collected Poems by Raymond Carver, published by Knopf, 1996.
