    I"m not a poetry reader myself, but Natasha reads so beautifully, and has a great, lilting voice, it was a pleasure to hear her poetry. She can bring the pathos out by her voice and make it seem real and palpable. For me, hearing poetry read, is better than reading it. Thank you for this video.
