I am lost in an ocean it seems
where the worst of my fears rule my dreams
for our " Teach " is not here
which I think a bit queer
will a search party light on her gleam ?

Geesh - She must be here somewhere...

Her only problem is that she's working 12-13 hour days Mon-Fri for the next couple of months...

We'll have April's workshop together by the end of the weekend though...

How about we try some Blank Verse??? I was talking to the teacher at school who specializes in poetry with the gifted kids... and she DIDN'T know what it is... Would you believe?

Wanna try it? Anyone? If not - Give me some other suggestions by tomorrow...

Blank verse? The thingy you write in iambic tetrameter, pentameter, hexameter, or whatever meter, without end rhymes?

Ok, I suppose I'm crazy enough to try it.

Thanks for the call Doc.

Blank verse sounds good. Did you know April is child abuse awareness month. Perhaps a combination of the form and subject?

Just a word of warning though my blank verse is likely to draw blank looks.

Thanks for getting this started Doc.

Munda and Kethry ,
Now don't you two go blaming me for this !
All I did was go looking for Nan . Whatever devious thing she comes up with to torment us I have no say in . But since you both said thanks , you're welcome anyway .
