Hi all!

Oh Gad, this site is nearly dead,
yet sweeter than the one I’d fled;
I must lament Australia Times
that often rang this poet’s chimes.
To Maureen fond wishes I extend—
though incognito, yet as friend.
I want to greet you, noble band,
as I return from foreign land,
i.g. a site that (to me) is dead.

A Short Rondeau in answer to yours!


To me a site that’s nearly dead
is webbed by cobs or maybe ghosts
of all the writers who have fled
to other realms and pen their posts
so all the hinter-net will view
with tears or maybe laughs of glee
from what they wrote but that’s not due
to me.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy



Kindness is a seed sown by the gentlest hand, growing care's flowers.
