Failure (Kay Ryan)
The poem "Failure" is by Kay Ryan. Her poetry is often compared to that of Emily Dickinson. She was appointed as U.S. Poet Laureate in 2008. I love the way the poem encourages me to welcome failure as nutrient, not something to be shunned. I am pleased that many of my friends who are teachers are displaying this picture-poem in their classrooms.
