With the sun high and warm, the dappled shade of the Forest is that much more poetic. But if you love true verse, we&#8217;ve got something a bit more literal for you to take advantage of this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>While <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nybg.org\/impressionism\">Impressionism: American Gardens on Canvas<\/a><\/em> continues throughout the Garden, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nybg.org\/impressionism\/event\/poetry-for-every-season\">Sophie Cabot Black will be joining us<\/a> on Sunday for a special reading that should be the icing on the cake for our summer of paintings and poems. You can join her in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nybg.org\/gardens\/perennial-garden\/index.php\">Perennial Garden<\/a> at 2 p.m. that day to sit and enjoy.
