All are PL OK.
I did notice you dropped your name from the intro. so we have some with and some without, but I don't see that as a particular problem if that is going to be consistent going forward.

Thank you!
Yes i realized after 8th or 9th poem that i did it differently, as my habit is leaving it off. After that i just decided to leave it off to be consistent going forward and thinking i’d probably forget anyway :lol:

Poems 13 and 14, the two Chansons Innocentes, uploaded.
I know 14 is a little weird but after listening to it a couple times then the raw recording again, i liked this version a little better :D

I'll mark these PL OK.
Just my personal take, but I didn't particularly care for the audio alteration on 14. Came out sounding really "tinny." But I suppose it has its own charm.

I agree. I think i will redo this one as it may be just a bit too jarring, though i don’t mind the processed sound per se - just couldn’t get quite what i was going for

Marked all PL OK

Optional note for 27
at 0:47 I hear and extra syllable in the word "languorus" Sounds like, "lan-glor-i-ous"
I would pronounce it "LANG-or-ous."

I usually don't follow the text too closely, but this one grabbed my ear.
Corrections are entirely up to you. Cummings if pretty fluid, after all. :lol:

Oh yes! Thank you for your ears! I changed the word that was spoken with runcible tongue (must have wanted it to sound like a ‘glorious hymn’)

I double checked it so you don’t have to listen unless you want to
