Francine, how wonderful to have you back. I have thought about you lots these past years.

And seeing Cate's and Izzy's names under my fingers is terrific.

Thank you for commenting mon amie! Your comments always reassure me that I haven't quite forgotten all the french I learnt after all!

A bientot!

Hello Francine, many thanks for taking the trouble to read Lovebird.
With regard to the comment about the reflection, what was in my minds eye was the idea that if one could only see oneself doing damage, it might be a salutary lesson learnt.

I never change work as you have noted but I really am pleased that other poets take the time to critique. I am sure it helps to mould further work.

my very best regards,

Graham

Glad you enjoyed Frank's poem, Francine. Thanks.

Thanks for commenting Francine? I am feeling better at last. Good job too - I'm an impatient patient

Merci à toi aussi, je suis très contente que t'as lu mon poème 'Today is Full Moon' et écouté ma musique! Et la fille près de la tour Eiffel est très sympa! :)

Thanks Francine, Appreciated lots as ever xxx

Thanks for your kind and supportive comments regarding 'alien feelings' Francine - I do try to include provocative images to tie up with the words and this one fell into my lap - Harry thinks that Alien is cuddly - me, I think its rather disturbing :-)

Thankyou for your thoughts on "The Rhymes They Are A-Changin'", Francine. I suspect it may not be my last parody!

Thanks for your comment on my poem Francine xx

many thanks for your kind comments regarding 'natural selection' Francine - It was an enjoyable experience trying to work that train-rhythm into the words and i'm pretty pleased with the result - I'm glad you liked it :-)
