Seamus Heaney

Seamus Heaney

Digging by Seamus Heaney

Between my finger and my thumb
The squat pen rests; snug as a gun.

Under my window, a clean rasping sound
When the spade sinks into gravelly ground:
My father, digging. I look down


Listen to: Making sense of a life, a conversation with Nobel Laureate and poet Seamus Heaney.
