I wanted to spread these out, but so much going on.
Well here are a couple of April poems, and one for what we should be doing in April.
I hope you enjoy them.

Yeah, that's not William T. Kirk

I believe all of these authors are already in the LV catalog.

Thank you, April! Indeed it fills a spot in the MW

Don't worry though, I do add more sections as needed, and delete any blank sections at the end, since this is a monthly collection.
Could you also add the phrase "read for Librivox dot org." in the intro? Like: "[Poem title], by [author], read for LibriVox dot org by [your name]". The "by your name" can be optional if you prefer

No worries! That's what the proof-listening step is for

All good now, so I will commence cataloguing!

In the meantime, next collection is open here: viewtopic.php?f=28&t=70125

Next collection, well I suppose I will take a look into that one and thanks for being such a dedicated Proof-listener, I appreciate you!
