I am a physics teacher who was acquainted personally with Richard Wilbur.
Many phrases from his poems stick in my mind and illuminate daily and
milestone experiences. One of these is "the buried strangeness/that
nourishes the known." For me it epitomizes physics, whose simple laws lie
behind everything we see and experience in the physical world.
