Sven,

Cool layout my friend.  Thanks for the look at Severn.

Wonderful poem.  Very much like a river.  Beautifully done.

There is pleasure in the pathless woods
there is rapture on the lonely shore
there is society where none intrudes
by the deep sea, and music in its roar
I love not man the less but nature more

Sven...I don't know what to say.

This is...satpsych!!!

Utterly...I was making a comment last night on string poems and how they can be hard to do well..

and lo and behold - here is one for me! Done well, and it amazes me that this is how you see my writing...

(and Marge(y), Kari, Martie and Lizzy)

Thankyou for including me in your gallery of poets - I really appreciate it, Sven.

Sven, this is lovely   and so like K,

we travel her poetic waters
upstream
      and
       down

and fill every corner and crevice of
