Quote

I am a Leo. I was born in August and I love the sunshine. I'm like a cat. We live in a very contemporary house with windows all around it. Wherever a sunspot is, I go to it with my yellow pad and my fountain pen and I write there.

I've always been a morning person, and what I don't get done in the morning I really don't get done at all.

I always hesitate to call myself a children's poet, and I always hesitate to call what I write for children poetry. Though a few of the verses that I've written, yes, I think they are truly poems.

I don't think anything is as magical as a fairy tale experience by a child.

I write a lot of children's verse and I think it delights in the language. It pleases people. It's very musical. It's very lyrical and that's certainly a very important aspect of poetry. But I think that a lot of it is verse. I write well-wrought verse.

A poem really does recreate the language, and that's what it has to do. A true poem, I think, has to give you that shiver. That, yes, it's never been said quite that way before.
