Thanks for the poetry...

Hello Librivox Community Members,
Mine is a sad but common tale of the poetry-impaired : I read poetry in school but never really enjoyed it. This was no fault of my teachers ; I guess I had to wait until the ripe age of 41 to have enough experience to appreciate poetry. The recordings I've listened to have helped me to discover the joys of verse - thank you all. Are there any other late-comers to poetry out there ?
For information, I was born in the US but now live in France. I admire the non-native speakers who are giving the readings a try - good for you !
Thanks again to all the wonderful readers and administrators - hope to participate as much as possible.
