starlessbibleblackPlease include the author’s name in titleI’m very glad this podcast exists but it’s maddening for there to be so many inconsistencies re where or if the writer is credited. It’s really annoying because some episodes aren’t searchable by name and then it’s time consuming to look inside each episode. Please just put their names in the titles.

:::::::::))))))((((((::::::::GreatThank you for providing poetry with no intro music or contextual explanation. I fall asleep to this podcast.

Escuchando000feed doesn't match websiteIt's good, but the website doesn't match the podcast feed? can't access the transcripts of the poems.

thrift shop mavenAuthor/reader pleasePlease have the reader say the name of the author before or after the poem. Thank you

MassachusettsMaggieInspiring and funI use these recordings as a way to pair a short break from my daily routine. Sometimes it inspires my own writing, sometimes it’s just a nice pause to reset my busy brain
-
LanunaflowerThank youThank you for this
-
ZsvolosFantastic resource - Needs a redesignIt’s too difficult to quickly see who the poet is.
-
Crowbar ManI just don’t like their poemsThree stars because they have good audio and I know this is popular poetry. I just don’t like these poems. There must be better poetry out there.

Jean-tooWonderful way to ingest poetryWhat we need now in our world is more caring, thoughtful people. Poets are such people. By their nature they examine their (and by extension, our) inner lives, and with immense generosity they give us the benefit of their well-honed mindful insights, delivered in beautiful phrases and cadences. My only suggestion is, could you please make the entire archive available? I only learned of you recently and it seems I cannot have access to the first 161 episodes. Is there any way you can retrofit the library to make them available? Whether you can or not, I’m very grateful for what you’ve already provided! Please don’t stop!

JeffreypoetbaltimorePoetry as Celebration of LifeThe importance of this project cannot be overstated. Poets are the protectors and purveyors of history. But the future is represented here too. All we have to do is let the voices in. My only suggestion: provide more recordings of works read by the author wherever possible. Robert Lowell, for example, had a distinct reading style which I personally believe adds to the experience of his poems. Thank you for all you do to bring us poetry.

First Pages ReadingsPoem of the DayInteresting idea and poem choices.

SelylidneShort, meaningful momentsSome of these I have to save to replay over and over. Almost all are less than 3 minutes, so they're easy to fit in to spare moments. Note that they're not actually released every day, just most days.

DesperaudioVery Nice.A great variety of poetry, read without pretension. A good panorama of interesting poems.

Logan Mironoff-ChinExcellent productionSimple grit And good Fit

Cobe_monDaily dose of heart-mind expansionWonderful selections, zero fluff.
-
Imsickoflookingfornicknamesperfectthank you for this. hearing poetry read aloud makes it more accessible and moving to me. contrary to what another review said, I like this the way it is. it doesn’t need an intro/outro, especially when the content is so short.

jessebrunmeierMy review is a 4 part garbage poem. 👍🏻PART I: Roses are red, three star review, the first two lines are sarcasm, most of these poems are garbage, but it’s the poetry foundation so what the **** ever. PART II: Enjoyable; only sometimes... like family. Solid “okay”. PART III: My name is Fred. I have a college degree I think I’m an artist, but I don’t really think. Yummy, I can feel my ******* ego expanding. Tasty, tasty, consumable poetry. Chicken soup for the sheep. Om nom nom nom. PART IV: Compare myself to flowers, such delicate things. In touch with my emotions, oh, how powerful my message. How original my thoughts. Note from the author: This review will more than likely disappear, so, consider this my only published work and protect it with your lives, please and thank you. *CENSORED FOR THE KIDS*

VaJJFGood Selection, but Needs ContextAs others have written, an introduction would be helpful. Would also like to see a bibliographic citation, short author bio, information on the reader, where & when read, etc.
-
PSKendraPoor productionGood idea, could be better executed. It needs a standard intro each week instead of just jumping straight into the poem

1517Why has it stopped updatingBeautiful podcast! Love the variety of readers and poems. Seems to have stopped updating though, even though their website keeps posting new episodes each day.

Sissy LiuA Necessary Part of My DayPoem a day offers a range of poetry I would not have read on my own. It has opened new worlds and introduced me to some wonderful poets. My imagination is stirred. Thanks for a stimulating experience.
-
TrueBlueSusanWonderfulLove this so much..went thru a rough time and listened to Ulysses couple times a day for months. Still helps. Please keep doing this; I’m subscribed but haven’t received poem since last Thursday :(
-
MurasakiFloofPoems Divers and BrightA wonderful array, a wonderful array.

fivespot after darkGood, but ...Good selection and usually well-performed, but it would be so nice if they put a link to the text (when available) on the website. Often I'll want to review the text, but have to google, which winds up directing me to the podcast's very website.

GetGoneAgainGreat Start To The DayThis is the first podcast I listen to every day after the NPR Hourly News Summary... great way to start the day!
-
ArtGirlSAHI’m backI don’t know why I forgot about you, but I am back and thank you for being here!

rustycage14It is good, but...I recently subscribed to this podcast, and while the poetry itself is quite good, the readers need to lighten up! The last 3 episodes sounded very depressing to the point I almost unsubscribed. However, the poems are beautifully written and I will continue to listen and hold out hope for some more up-beat voices.

GAB...Different voices; different roomsI tend to accumulate a few that I want to hear, either by author or by title or sheer curiousity, and then listen to several in a row. This is a great service, and it's well worth the time.

ANT0NIUSBLCKGreat PodcastI love this podcast already. I've been using the poetry app for a while now, the reading of poetry and listening has really improved my writing.
-
PapaFrogUsed to be great, but currently marginalized into the etherWHAT in THE hell is going on with this podcast!!???!! Several of the most recent poems haven't downloaded and I've reported "my concerns". TWICE. And yet the problems persist. Today, another stillborn posted so-called podcast. Folks?...forget these rank (pun intended) amateurs. Find another more reliable outlet for your poetry jones...like books! I also recommend IndieFeed's exceptional Performance Poetry podcast...cerebral AND thrilling.

PirxthePilotTwo poems unavailable...I love Poem of the Day Podcast. It introduces me to poets I otherwise would never have heard of and allows me to regularly listen to poems being read out-loud, by people who read well. I have to ask why is it that there are two poems ("Another Barn Burning" and "Crush") unable to be downloaded? I hope this can be fixed and that Poetry Foundation keeps putting out great poems on the Podcast.

BlackmereSimply poetryA fantastic, quick podcast for poetry lovers. Sometimes a short explanation from the poet and then the poem. Simple, straightforward and exactly what I like in a poetry podcast. Poetry.
-
sytwoGreat poetry read very wellThe readings of the poems are great with different narrators. The selection of poems is varied and interesting, short and a good listen.
