A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor

Bed of Roses Spring Poetry Contest

Just like last year, we're rekindling our love affair with spring poetry. Instead of lyrics, though, we're wrangling 14 line sonnets about love.

When in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes
And buried in snow up to your eyes and noses
Why not write a spring poem and win first prize,
A Sleep Number bed that is strewn with roses?
