My sweetheart gave me…
…a wonderful idea! She mentioned that people hadn’t been looking very far back in time on the site. She thought that was a shame. That made me think along these lines:

This entry is very instructive for a number of reasons: Continue reading
The whys and wherefores of…
…the fact that I’m not ‘following,’ and indeed quite literally, not ‘liking’ the poetry site in question below:
However quite a lot of writing and thinking, among other edifying activities went into this whole exchange, so I’m snipping the whole thing here, along with a part of the article under which my original comment was posted. Continue reading
