solitary tear in falling dost thou hear me wailing Autumn wind by intoning Siren's song I grieve thy passing moment |

Thank you so much Meadowmuse. I understand about the name...people have done far worse. I take/took NO offence. Ruth, from you, that is HIGH praise indeed. As a poet and person I respect and admire, your opinion carries great weight with me...thank you. Best Regards, INclan |

I hear thy voice, As winds whisper it to thy ear, do not grieve for I am here, Never shall fall a solitary tear, |

Sometimes it is very pleasant just to see the lady disrobed, devoid of baubles and make-up, standing there in the natural beauty of pure simplicity....like your poetry. I admire your style. |

IN, At first I was worried that I'd lost the respect of a good poet. I can sleep now. M. |
