Field notes
The collection spans Japan, China, India, Spain, Ireland, Wales, England, and the United States. Visitors can open “Poem of the day” or “All poems”; a drag turns the paired painted scene, while sound remains off until requested and most poems support read-aloud. The site says all poems are public domain except one tile that links to a still-copyrighted poem. Its suggestion form accepts an email, a poem suggestion, or feedback independently.
