POEM It's like writing a short letter to everyone in the world at once, only I don't have anyone's address and there is no thin blue envelope to carry it, no tiny picture of a famous aviator or of a blooming flower to speed it on its way.
BILLY COLLINS'S latest collections are Sailing Alone Around the Room: New and Selected Poems (2001) and Nine Horses (2002), both from Random House. He is United States Poet Laureate.
