Okay what the hell. The image that was on this article said "pre 1923, not subject to cpyright" and it was deleted. (I'm guessing "no source" on this one.) But this poet deserves a photo. - Hbdragon88 06:34, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

This is an exciting page to read for teens my age

I'm removing the oft-repeated misconception that her poem "I Shall Not Care" was written as a suicide note. As Wikisource confirms, it was in fact published 18 years before her suicide, as part of the collection Rivers to the Sea (1915). --Delirium 06:18, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

I had a feeling that this was the case, but it seemed to be repeated an awful lot when I checked the anon's addition. Incidentally, I see that someone has broken the Teasdale books I added to Wikisource up into their individual poems, and done quite a good job of it - how cool. Ambi 06:25, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Did she drown herself, or did she die from an overdose? This entry's clearness leaves much to be desired still.

A few excerpts from her marvellous work would also be at their place. Nerusai 01:20, 14 December 2006 (UTC)


i think she is a wonderful writer its sad that she killed herself.......ya know all the good poets die –68.0.235.235 21:27, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "There Will Be Rest"

I know Frank Ticheli was inspired by Sara Teasdale's poems and her death to write his famous piece "There Will Be Rest", but I'm a bit confused about if she actually wrote a poem called "There Will Be Rest" or if Ticheli's lyrics were completely his own. Would someone who knows the answer please write me back? I'll check in the near future. Thank you. :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.132.39.224 (talk) 03:26, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
