Andrew Motion: don't hurry, be happy

The path to happiness is long and winding, says our former poet laureate, and it takes you through some very dark places

A beautiful article which includes...........

The sort of rapture, at any rate, that Seamus Heaney catches at the end of his poem Postscript, where he feels

neither here nor there,

A hurry through which known and strange things pass

As big soft buffetings come at the car sideways

And catch the heart off guard and blow it open.”
