She is just simple so amazing. I do not understand how so much talent can be compressed into such a little body. She is such a gift to the world.

Dame Judi is such a treasure. Her smile at the end is adorable.

In junior high in the 70s, I recited this poem, by A.E. Houseman, from 'A Shropshire Lad', if I remember correctly. I've loved this poem all my life. Now, being threescore years and 6... I feel it's full and bittersweet meaning. Thank you Dame, for giving it the light it deserves.

Her recitation of 'Ulysses' from Skyfall, still sends a chill down my spine..... Miss her terribly as M.

The Tennyson poem, or James Joyce novel?

Wonderful performance! I always love her performance since I find her nearly 30 years ago when I first move to Australia!

[@buzzukfiftythree]

Wonderful.

Oh, Ms. Dench, that is so lovely! I have never heard it before! My favorite is Wordworth's "Daffodils". I had someone in England write it for me in calligraphy, framed it, and always put it up in the living room in the spring. For that's when ..."my heart within me thrills and dances with the daffodils!" Here in North Carolina, they bloom in late February and early March. .🙏

[@dodiatkins4515]

I have the utmost respect for Dame Judi. She holds a special place in my heart. 😊

[@fightbacktohealth9625]

Apart from the undoubted talent... the spirituality. She became a quaker at 14 when attending a Quaker boarding school (The Mount)

We have a common love…trees. And what about Joyce Kilmer’s poem…”I think that I shall never see a poem as lovely as a tree. Poems are made by fools like me. But only God can make a tree.”

[@maryannehenderson6023]

The simplesity. What human effort can express better? From Dame Judi, who better to give it vioce?

[@LarsCarlsen-or6ky]

From a great poet, who lived alone...
