homour? April is for fools, the jester is I and in the King's court, all my tales are wry When women in town begin to shed their sleeves While spring throws light yet clothes the trees with leaves :-) Regards Sudhir P.S. I was away for a while, so I do not know whether humour was the key element of the class a few months back... [This message has been edited by Sudhir Iyer (04-03-2002 08:46 AM).] |

Any requests? You bet! Get your booties out to Poetry Readings...they are springing up everywhere! Bridget Shenachie and I were overjoyed to watch and listen to Stephen Dunn, last year's Pulitzer Prize winner! See The Poetry Reader in Open if you want a glimpse of inspire that I received...and oh, so much more! |

Hi Nan! I'm "IN" for whatever you decide. I don't know what you've done previously so it's all new to me. How about something requiring specific meter since meter is my weak point. Can't promise to excel but I promise to participate. I'm still bouncing off the walls from Dunn's Poetry Reading that Sunshine mentioned above and so I'm all agog for new possibilities. Shenachie |

To make a proper villanelle one must first find the villanella beans. The best beans grow only in certain remote areas. Being that I (however) am full of beans, I will gladly save the rest of you the trouble of finding them and will bring plenty to class.
