About your giant work, transforming all
The empty woods into a glittering hall

Missed this one the first time around, outstanding discovery, or rather a new poet to me...

Well, thank you, Zod. I appreciate it when you bump a PPB thread, but
when you add info like that video it's a bonus, something I can
potentially add to her wiki article. I could have had it embedded
already -- I have one video on her on the wiki already -- but I didn't,
ao I quickly added it. Its focus is more on her bio, so I put it into
her "Life" section, whereas the one I already had was more about her
poetry, so it's now in the "Writing" section. There's some overlap, but
I'm happy to have both, and consider them value added.

In return, here's an OB: a video of her poem "The House of the Trees",
which is also embedded in the wiki article. If you read it, you'll note
that the /Dictionary of Literary Biography/ compares her not just to
Canada's Confederation Poets, but her best poetry to Emily Dickinson. I
think that comparison comes through well in "The House of the Trees" --
Wetherald is a more conventional writer, probably because unlike
Dickinson she wrote for publication, but I can sense the resemblance.
