Hi Erin,

Sections 51-53 and 55-60 are PL OK.

My best,

I know, aren't they great? I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into, but she's been knocking them out of the park. I didn't know so much narrative, or so much menace, could fit into two or three short stanzas.

Thanks for such a fast PL!

I'd be thrilled if poetry got a million downloads, but I don't think it's going to happen! Maybe Jane Austen and Mark Twain, but verse by 'who's that?' - maybe not! Still, we can try to spread the word!

Hi Erin,

Sections 68-75 are PL OK.

The Boer War.

"The Wind"--terrific.

Millions,

I know, that war poem came out of nowhere! And her nature poetry doesn't follow the patterns I'm used to, either. I had a bit of trepidation, not knowing what I was launching. If the Librivox mission is to record absolutely everything, there are bound to be some duds in there I'd be making you listen to. But so far, touch wood, we've been lucky!

I believe this woman is incapable of writing a bad poem, which is more than you can say for her great uncle.

You've just made my day. Thank you for making me smile! Yes, I've never known seventy-odd poems go by so quickly, that's for sure.
