WOW! My subscribe feature must have turned itself off. I discover this and lo, 4 new recitals sitting there, like eggs in the nest. How exciting, O!

Algy, Nancy, Inkell, your renditions, each one so very different, are all PL OK.

Bill, I marvel at how you added, changed and omitted so many words in this poem. However, since these recordings are "just for fun", I didn't cite any of them. I must ask you, however to add the short disclaimer at the end.

"Added, changed and omitted"? Damn. I tried many, many variation on those terminal "O"s. So probably I uploaded an early, sucky version. Sorry. I'll scratch around for the good version.

Bill, the O's were fine. It's ok. Please just append the disclaimer to the poem I PL'd.

Thank you, I'm so glad! I was starting to worry I would need to rerecord something and wouldn't have time
