Choosing Poems with Personal Connection

The poet Craig Morgan-Tyser selected a poem titled 'Sun' by Forrest Gander from The New Yorker Archive because it shared the same title as one of his own poems in the archive, making it an easy choice. Despite the vast selection of poems available, he trusted his gut feeling and chose a poem that had a profound impact on him when he first read it. This personal connection and emotional resonance guided his decision to pick this particular poem for discussion.
