Somebody told me it was National Read a poem day. May I humbly suggest 'Utterly Pure' up at Eternal Haunted Summer.
This was inspired, as many of my works are by a chance encouter with Wiki. Wikipedia rules! Did I mention I've been doing a little Wiki editing, by the way.

Great poem, Deborah
ReplyDeleteThank you kindly, m'dear.
DeleteAs I only discovered it was read a poem day after the event perhaps you'll forgive me for not reading your poem until after the event.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the publication.
If you read it, I'll forgive you Patsy! Any read is a good read.

Yes. So many things to write, so little time. Yikes!
