Every month on the program, we ask a writer to select short works of poetry and prose, one for each week of the month, all on a specific theme. This October, Natalie Disney joins us to share works on the theme of autumn. Today, she reads a poem by Barbara Crooker called, “And Now It’s September.” Crooker has published ten poetry collections, with her decorated work appearing in hundreds of outlets, including The Sun, BBC, and The Writer’s Almanac. Her most recent collection, Slow Wreckage, was published by Grayson Books in 2024.
