a response that was clearly meant to be off-list, but was nonetheless
welcome.  I like the discipline of trying to write a poem a week.  I'm sure
that many of you delete the offerings instantly.  No problem.  I'm not
trying to impress anyone, or trespass on valuable time. Sending verse to the
list takes pressure off the cat.

(Osbert Sitwell, "Poetry is like fish; if it's fresh, it's good; if it's
stale, it's bad; and if you're not certain, try it on the cat.")

I thank Mike Geary, maistro, for starting this, and all who contribute
poems.

Carry on.
