ETA: Masterfullly read, Peter!
I found "Going Home" esp. poignant.

Thanks, Silverquill; I liked "Only a Boche" best.
I'd like to read 12 Fleurette, 15 My Mate, and 30 My Prisoner, please.
There are a few of the remaining poems that are spoken by women. Would it be worth mentioning that somewhere, to see if we can get women to read them?
... and, for that matter, a few which could do with a Scottish accent!

Here you go. I thought I'd get them done, as I had to wait in for a delivery.
But I apologise for not waiting for your okay; I've just realised that if I had missed someone else's claims and uploads for these three, my uploads will have displaced theirs. If my recordings are actually duplicates, I can submit them to another of the collections instead.
A couple of teary ones here:
12 Fleurette (5.06)
https://librivox.org/uploads/alg1001/redcrossman_12_service_128kb.mp3
15 My mate (2.44)
https://librivox.org/uploads/alg1001/redcrossman_15_service_128kb.mp3
30 My prisoner (3.13)

All is good, Peter!
I'll PL these in a bit.
Good suggestions. I might PM one of the ladies who is good with poems, and see if I can remember who I had with a good Scottish accent. Not crucial, but always a nice touch.

Hi! I'd like to take #23 Coqutte. I don't think my American accent would be too far a stretch for her story. It might take me a few weeks to get going. I've been out for a few months and now that I'm back, I'm working on re-tooling my sound booth (read: constructing sound booth instead of padding pillows into my open food pantry). Thanks in advance for your patience.
PS- I'm excited to get to be on the same project as Peter Yearsley- he's the reason I got interested in Librivox. Squeee!

And verily did the chains fall off all manner of things which sorely needed chaining.

There are indeed some difficult poems to read here in an emotional sense.

Well, I'm guessing at the French, but sounds good to me.
Thanks so much.
