Glad you liked my 2CV poem. After we had left France a friend sold it to a farmer for virtually nothing.It probably ended up as a hen shed.

(re Sorry bone) Thanks Martin, High Praise; I blush?
The words were poured out and while upon reflection I thought it a tad confusing, I then recalled that that is the case with most of my verse.
The photo' was taken by myself. It is of the interior of Liverpool's Tate Gallery. The silhouette is of an unknown (to me ) woman.

Really, Martin, I can't imagine you as anything less than a gentleman--I have to think that your style of writing and commenting is a true reflection of who you are as a person. Thanks for your kind support.

Thanks for commenting "Clever Love". I hadn't really thought of this one as a speak-aloud piece, as it was an exercise in rhyming form (and theme). But maybe I could try it!

Really appreciate your thoughtful comments as always!

Thanks for your comments on Jazz Martin, I'm a huge fan of jazz and used to play in a jazz band through my teens and early twenties. This particular piece was about a performance I saw by a group at our local conservatorium. The group was young but inspired, and the singer captivating. A moment that warranted capturing. ?

thanks for your comment on "Corner Man".
i am so glad you are still holding up that blue sign.
you and the corner man have that in common.

with no sign and no future.
