Pamela Robertson-Pearce filmed Ruth Stone in Vermont in September 2008. Ruth was almost blind already but knew many of her poems by heart, and recited (or sang) several poems in this short film (prompted occasionally by editor Neil Astley) from What Loves Comes To: 'In an Iridescent Time', 'Orchard', 'The Talking Fish', 'The Excuse', 'Advice', 'I Have Three Daughters' (which she sings), 'Metamorphosis', 'Bargain, 'Mantra' and 'The Season'.
