The Daily Poem offers one essential poem each weekday morning. From Shakespeare and John Donne to Robert Frost and Emily Dickinson, The Daily Poem curates a broad and generous audio anthology of the best poetry ever written, read-aloud by David Kern and an assortment of various contributors. Some lite commentary is included and the shorter poems are often read twice, as time permits.
The Daily Poem is presented by Goldberry Studios.

What listeners say
A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.
The Daily Poem is just what it promises, one poem, from what seems like the entire universe of English language (and some translated) poetry. Sean reads the poem, and adds a few remarks, context and commentary. Besides hearing a new poem everyday, you can pick up a mass of esoteric knowledge. And you can binge!

Thank you Sean Johnson for saving the Daily Poem! (And, of course, thanks always to Logan Green 😊). The choice of poems and commentary are top notch (and nearly daily!).

I absolutely love this podcast- it’s such a simple and meaningful way to bring a little truth, beauty and learning into my days. I’ve enjoyed listening to poems from poets I know well and being introduced to new poets. Thank you David, Sean and Heidi!
