# I love it :D
What's your favourite Larkin?

I myself love Days and The Whitsun Weddings. And This be the verse obviously :)

The Guardian ran a poetry series last year, and Andrew Motion wrote the most fantastic foreword for the Larkin book!

# At the moment I'm loving An Arundel Tomb
But my opinion changes frequently

The stone fidelity they hardly meant
Has come to be their final blazon
ANd to prove our almost instinct almost true -
What will survive of us is love

Edit: I'd love to read that Motion forward, is it online?
