(I've used the gutenberg link as text source)

ok then all is well

and here is my last one for this month, this time at least one by a famous author

I hope the HUGE title is not a problem for the MW

(but abbreviated the filename

)
It's another grave inscription, I hope you don't mind having two in this collection. I always find them interesting and like to read some less-known poems.

I submitted “The Poppy” by Francis Thompson (1859 – 1907) back on April 9, 2018. Just wanted to know if you had any feedback.

This is my second submission to Librivox, my first to the Short Poetry Collection.

Hi Scott! Welcome to the Poetry Collection

Yes, the poem was very well read! It was marked PL OK in the Magic Window.
I hope you enjoy recording, and that you'll keep contributing. Looking forward to listening to more of your voice!
