I knew none of those. Dayum.

I didn't get this, either. My wild guess was Gerard Manley Hopkins's "Binsey Poplars". I love Jeopardy!, though.

I didn't get it, but I should've (my random guess was Oranges by Soto). The date threw me off, references like that aren't usually so recent so I was thinking of stuff from 1940 onward.

Hey, at least you got the time frame correct. My wild guess was a Victorian poem, so that was way off - and my only reasoning was that it's about felled trees that presumptively could be "restored". And poplars don't even bear edible fruit, so that was way off too. :o:

I blurted out "The Grapes of Wrath!".

Not even a poem, so...

:laughing:

Oscars: The Grouch.

(actually, I didn't know it either until I heard
something on the BBC while laying in bed).
