Dear Poet... 'Move' with Alice Ostriker

I have been reading all the wonderful letters in the Dear Poet initiative on Poets.org - I find every one touching, both the questions from the school children and the care taken by the poets in responding.

The correspondence from Alice Ostriker to her poem, Move, though was really moving. I wish I'd had a poet to write to when I was growing up - particularly one who would offer this lovely image: "I was not at all like the salmon or turtle that has no doubts--I only wished I were."

Do read the poem before you read the letters, as many of the images are reflections of 'Move'. And also because, although this project is for children, I think we all want to be:

Thirsty for a destiny like theirs,
An absolute right choice

And it's got me thinking. Which poet would you write to, and about which poem?
