Naomi Shihab Nye:
On Inspiration

"I can never imagine how someone would fall in love with poetry and stop reading poems. But I think that people often talk themselves out of a bit of responding, which is just as important as collecting."

Hear Naomi Shihab Nye discuss inspiration, influences, and how she gains a sense of community through poetry.
