LibriVox volunteers bring you 15 recordings of The Touch of the Master’s Hand by Myra Brooks Welch.

This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for March 2, 2025. ------

Myra Brooks Welch was an American poet. She was disabled in a wheelchair from arthritis. Her arthritis later caused her to not be able to play music, such as the organ which she used to play. Her hands were disabled, but she wrote poems on a typewriter by pressing the keys with pencil erasers, despite the pain that it caused. She was named "the poet with the singing soul". - Summary by Wikipedia
